Objective: To examine practices of dentists in Texas providing dental/oral care to cancer patients.
Method: Dental providers in Texas were invited via email to participate in an exploratory cross-sectional study. A non-probability voluntary convenience sampling procedure was used to recruit the sample. The online, anonymous, self-reported survey included questions to capture demographics, type of dental practice, services provided, and number of cancer patients. The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of The university of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Result: A total of 655 dentists completed the questionnaire items. Results revealed that 62% of the respondents were 51-65 years old, predominantly (68%) male, Caucasian (81%) with their dental degrees awarded in the state of Texas (77%). 91% of the dentists provide dental care to patients who are currently undergoing cancer treatment or have a history of cancer. However, 80% of the dental providers do not teach oral self-exam to their patients, which may include cancer survivors or those undergoing cancer treatment, while 32% dentists do not deliver brief interventions for effectively motivating and assisting tobacco users to quit.
Conclusion: Because Texas, especially Houston, is known for world-class cancer care, dentists in the state are more likely to provide dental care to oncologic patients, especially emergency dental procedures in cancer patients facing some of the side effects of cancer treatment. Careful monitoring of oral health and reducing tobacco use are especially important during and after cancer therapy to prevent, detect, and treat complications as soon as possible. A further step in oral care for cancer patients and survivors is to train patients how to perform regular oral self-examination and to provide tobacco users with cessation counseling as part of their dental/oral treatment. These simple but comprehensive approaches, along with regular dental visits, will positively impact the health-related outcomes for cancer patients, enhancing both survival and quality of life.
