Abstract
Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) is about offering support to make the right decision in choosing the best treatment for our patients. Since it first appeared in top medical journals in 19921 , EBM has revolutionized medical practice and infiltrated other disciplines (such as dentistry) along the way as a tool to support the decision-making process in the provision of medical care.
