The authors surveyed participants in a National Cancer Institute, or NCI, training program that provides brief tobacco cessation services. They found significant improvements in the frequency with which practitioners ask patients about tobacco use and assist patients in stopping tobacco use. Improvements also were found in the participants’ level of confidence and preparedness to help patients quit. Despite some limitations, the NCI training was shown to be an effective program for the oral health care team.
