CLINICAL PRACTICE

Tobacco control activities in U.S. dental practices



TA Dolan, SP McGorray, CL Grinstead-Skigen, and R Mecklenburg
Division of Public Health Services and Research, University of Florida College of Dentistry, JHMHC 32610-0405, USA.

The authors surveyed general dentists, periodontists, pediatric dentists and dental hygienists in three U.S. geographical regions to estimate the percentage who practiced tobacco use cessation activities in their dental offices. A total of 1,746 dentists and 723 dental hygienists completed either a long or short version of a mailed survey or telephone interview. The authors found that tobacco cessation activities are not a routine part of dental practice and that tobacco control activities and training vary by dentist type and geographical region.
