Dean Jeffrey W. Hutter Appointed Chair of ADA Advisory Committee on EBD

On November 24, Dean Jeffrey W. Hutter was appointed Chair of the American Dental Association (ADA) Advisory Committee on Evidence-Based Dentistry (EBD). This committee was formed in 2001 as part of the ADA’s action plan for evidence-based activities. Dean Hutter previously served as Chair of this Committee from 2001 to 2007.

The purpose of the Committee is to ensure that the entire spectrum of research, dental practice, and education are taken into account as the ADA moves forward on any activity related to EBD.

"I am very pleased to once again be appointed to this role," said Dean Hutter. "Evidence-based dentistry plays a crucial role in all aspects of dental medicine and I take the responsibility of advocating for EBD within the ADA very seriously."
