Research Shows Moms Seek Quality Online Tools

Academy of General Dentistry Creates Comprehensive Web Portal

CHICAGO, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Everyone knows that Moms are the ones who make most decisions in American households today.

She explained that the association chose mothers and families as their initial target for the portal, with college graduates and individuals moving to a new city not far behind.

According to a recent study commissioned by the AGD and conducted by C&R Research, Inc., Chicago, 90 percent of Moms decide who becomes their child's dentist, yet 50 percent have not found a reliable online source they trust for dental information.
