Abstract
UNLABELLED: There is a role for dentistry in the interprofessional management of chronic diseases by addressing common risk factors BACKGROUND: A critical scientific foundation has developed for management of risk factors common to major diseases including periodontal disease, caries, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. PURPOSE: The purpose of this paper is to critically review this scientific literature. This will provide the basis for the current and future role of the dental setting in common risk factor identification and modification; with an emphasis on the role of the dental hygienist. METHODS: A systematic review of the literature and analysis of the relevant papers was undertaken to support the recommendations. CONCLUSIONS: We propose that the appropriate risk factor management procedures be adopted in the dental setting for smoking cessation, reduction of sugar consumption, and weight control in those patients at risk for one or a combination of the following diseases: periodontal disease, caries, diabetes, heart disease and certain cancers.
