Crest/OralB School Survey

Dental students–please take a few minutes to complete the survey below!

OralB is conducting their 2021 Student Steps to Success research project among dental students and residents across the US and Canada.  Again this year they have contracted Promise Consulting, Inc., an independent consulting firm, to administer the survey and analyze the data.

This annual survey is very important to the Crest/Oral-B team.  In it, they ask residents and dental and dental hygiene students about their personal usage of oral care products, their opinions of the different brands, their experience with Dr. Cyndee Stegeman, the school rep that calls on our school, and what they recommend to their patients.  It takes less than 8 minutes for a student to complete online.

Your responses are completely confidential and protected by healthcare privacy guidelines.  The survey should take you less than 8 minutes to complete. If you need to, you can pause and save your responses and finish it up later.

Your input is incredibly valuable in driving important improvements in the way student needs are addressed by the Crest/OralB team.

All you need to do is click on the link below (or copy and paste it into your browser) to start the survey.

Thank you in advance for your prompt participation. It is greatly appreciated. 

If you have any questions or concerns about your survey experience, please email Dianne at dianne@promiseconsulting.com.
