A dental hygienist employed by a dental clinic at a federal prison would like to implement a program to reduce plaque for the female prisoners. She has worked at the prison for three years and has noticed a very high prevalence of gingivitis and periodontal disease in the prisoners. The warden has given her permission to conduct a pilot program with funding for additional supplies and increased working hours. One of the first steps the dental hygienist performed was to distribute a survey to the 75 female prisoners in the pilot program. The survey data indicated that 65% brush daily, 10% floss on a regular basis, and 80% of dental emergencies are due to toothaches. Use this information to answer questions 16-20 To further ascertain the dental needs of the prisoners, which of the following quantitative data collection methods should be utilized?
