  1. CDS, clinical decision support; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval. Analysis is restricted to N = 2055 patients linked to 29 non-oral surgeon dentists in CDS and CDS-E arms during the intervention period. Oral surgeons are excluded due to their very low level of CDS utilization (accessed CDS for 10 extractions). Generalized linear mixed model with fixed effects of baseline prescribing strata, patient sex, patient age, CDS opened, complex extraction indicator, interaction of CDS opened and complex extraction indicator, and random intercept for provider
