Objectives: State and national tobacco quitlines have expanded rapidly offer a range of services. We examined the effectiveness cost offering callers single session versus multisession counselling, with or without free nicotine patches. Methods: This 3×2 randomised trial included 4614 Oregon quitline compared brief (one 15-minute call), moderate 30-minute call follow-up call) intensive (five proactive calls) intervention protocols, offers patches (nicotine replacement therapy, NRT).

Clinical Relevance Dentists who did not assess caries risk as a routine part of the treatment planning process were more likely to choose surgical intervention and less preventive treatment.
Following inception in 2005 as a multiregional practice-based research network (PBRN), the "National Dental PBRN" expanded nationwide 2012, and 2019 implemented additional organizational changes. The objectives are to: (1) describe new structure function of network; (2) quantify its scientific productivity since 2005.A national Administrative Resource Center is based Alabama; regional specialty nodes Alabama, Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, New York, Texas. A Network Coordinating...
Effectively addressing challenges of conducting research in nonacademic settings is crucial to its success. A dental practice-based network called The Dental Practice-Based Research Network (DPBRN) comprised practitioner- investigators two health maintenance organizations, several universities, many U.S. states, and three Scandinavian countries. Our objective this article describe lessons learned from studies context; the are conducted by clinicians community who may be doing their first...
The incidence of osteonecrosis the jaw (ONJ) in population is low, but specifics are unknown. Potential risk factors include bisphosphonate treatment, steroid osteoporosis, and head/neck radiation. This Dental Practice-Based Research Network study estimated ONJ odds ratios from exposure other using a key word search manual chart reviews electronic records for adults aged ≥ 35 yrs enrolled during 1995–2006 two large health-care organizations. We found 16 cases among 572,606 cohort members;...
Objective: We estimated the cost effectiveness of Oregon tobacco quitline’s “free patch initiative” compared to pre-initiative programme. Methods: Using quitline utilisation and data from state, intervention providers patients, we annual programme use costs for media promotions services. also registration calls number quitters life years saved free initiative programmes. Service 30-day abstinence at six months were obtained 959 callers. (media costs) service offered insured uninsured...
All states offer telephone quit lines but they are under-used in part because of the costs associated with promotion. Offering nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) as well behavioral counseling can increase treatment participation and abstinence rates, is expensive. less than a full NRT 8-week course also generate calls to line known about its impact on program outcomes. In October 2004, Oregon--a state over 3 million people, 500,000 smokers, state-funded line--introduced Free Patch...
Dental sealants, an evidence-based clinical practice, can arrest occlusal non-cavitated carious lesions (NCCLs); however, U.S. oral health providers rarely provide this treatment. To increase providers' adoption of the clinic leaders need to identify implementation strategies deploy. Using a stepped wedge design across 16 cluster-randomized dental clinics, we examined whether small-group deliberative engagement enabled 680 and staff endorse placement sealants on NCCLs. Participants...
Little is known about the effect of a pay-for-performance system (P4P) on primary medical care providers and even less its potential impact in dentistry. Based growing acceptance performance-based reimbursements medicine dissemination innovative technologies, structures, processes from to dental services, it likely that profession will face payments not-too-distant future. In this paper, we present current experience P4P has relevance dentistry discuss programs date. Taking into...
