AB - Objectives: This study aims to highlight the importance of evidence-based practice (EBP) among dental hygienists and to support improvements in public oral health by encouraging the use of EBP in clinical settings. Methods: A survey was conducted with 136 dental hygienists who had at least one year of clinical experience. The EBP competency survey assessed their knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Results: Work experience and knowledge of EBP were found to be significant factors influencing EBP practice, accounting for 50.5% of the variance (p<0.001). Participants’ practice of EBP was lower than their knowledge and attitudes, indicating a disparity between these factors. Conclusions: These findings suggest the need for structured educational programs and stronger institutional support to help dental hygienists apply EBP more effectively in clinical practice. This will improve the quality of dental hygiene services and contribute to better public oral health.
