For this topic, besides the usual MEDLINE searching, I would add searches of
other databases, particularly ERIC and CINAHL. When getting into something
that is often taught in the schools, either by teachers or dental
hygienests, you need to consider the education and allied health literature
as well as the dental (in MEDLINE) and biomedical. You might even want to
consult PsycLIT - occupational therapy literature there - and other
databases your library might recommend. Check OMNI for relevant websites.
Free ERIC is available at http://ericir.syr.edu/Eric/ Ask your health
sciences library about CINAHL access.
Good luck - Peg
