Tobacco cessation for the dental team: a practical guide part I: background & overview
1Health Care Professions, Dental Hygiene, at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, USA.
Abstract:
Dental professionals are strategically placed to be the leaders in tobacco prevention and cessation as they provide preventive and therapeutic services to a basically healthy population on a regular basis. By expanding the dental exam, diagnosis, and treatment to include tobacco cessation, a potentially life saving element of care is added to an established service. In addition periodontal disease and the potential for oral cancer mandate the inclusion of tobacco cessation services into dental care.

In this, the first of a two-part article, the purpose is to provide dental professionals with the foundational knowledge necessary to provide effective tobacco cessation as a normal part of patient care.
