Noun
The branch of medicine which deals with the incidence, distribution, and possible
control of diseases and other factors relating to health (Oxford)

events in specified populations, and the application of this study to the control of health
problems (CDC)
 ORAL EPIDEMIOLOGY

Studies conducted in the field of oral epidemiology provide information on normal biological
processes and on diseases of the oral cavity, identify populations at risk of oral disease or in
need of specific care, and compare regional, environmental, social, and access similarities and
differences in dental care between populations.3
Oral epidemiology also tests preventive interventions for controlling disease and evaluates
the effectiveness and quality of interventions and oral health programs.3
