福利姬视频Living Guideline FAQ

Why are guidelines important?
Guidelines help make people healthy. They contain recommendations formulated by a panel of subject matter experts, researchers, patient partners, and other relevant interest-holders that are informed by research evidence. These recommendations are crafted to assist oral health providers, health care professionals, patients, and policymakers in making informed clinical and policy decisions.
How are living guidelines different than traditional guidelines?

Both living and traditional guidelines follow rigorous and methodological processes to ensure thorough and thoughtful development.

Traditional guideline development typically takes more than 2 years to complete. In contrast, living guidelines are proactive. The process continuously monitors literature for new evidence and data, allowing for individual recommendations to be updated regularly. This results in more relevant recommendations that can be implemented in real-time.

The living guidelines developed in this program will also be hosted digitally and use technology like artificial intelligence to identify and help analyze data, allowing for quick and efficient updates as soon as they are available.

How are topics determined for the 福利姬视频Living Guideline Program?

Guideline topics and priorities are defined by an advisory panel made up of interest-holders across the U.S. oral health system. Having representation across different sectors is a new and important part of the process when determining areas for the most impactful guideline development.

Guidelines are developed by independent panels with multidisciplinary backgrounds and methodologically supported by faculty and staff from the 福利姬视频and Penn Dental Medicine, who provide collaborative, efficient evidence synthesis with strong technological and methodological expertise.

Will the program only develop new guidelines or will it also update existing guidelines?

Both. The advisory panel will be looking at both new topics and existing guidelines to revisit and update.

The program can also help identify areas that need more research. For example, systematic reviews on a guideline topic may find there isn’t enough evidence to inform a particular topic. Through the process, the specific type of research needed to develop future guidelines can be identified.

How will guidelines be disseminated?
The guidelines will be submitted to The Journal of the 福利姬视频 for publication. Quarterly updates to the research evidence supporting the guideline and, when warranted, updates to the guideline recommendations will be published and available in J福利姬视频and ADA.org/LivingGuideline.
What living guidelines does the 福利姬视频plan to develop in 2025?
The initial focus of the 福利姬视频Living Guideline Program will be an update of a 2017 福利姬视频guideline on the evaluation of potentially malignant disorders in the oral cavity. The first recommendation is expected to publish digitally later this year on ADA.org and it will be submitted to The Journal of the 福利姬视频.
How should clinicians implement these guidelines?

The purpose of creating a guideline is to achieve better health outcomes. Just as living guidelines are developed in real-time, dental professionals and other clinicians can use this information as it becomes available to inform and advance patient care.

These guidelines will also adhere to the highest methodological standards used in other healthcare disciplines, which means they can be used by clinicians in many disciplines. For example, a guideline on oral pain management can be used by emergency medicine physicians because it's developed with the same methodological framework used in medicine.

Clinicians are encouraged to stay up to date on the ADA’s guideline recommendations and to follow a balanced, patient-centered approach when integrating guideline recommendations into clinical practice.
