| Abstract: | BackgroundOral health care providers are encouraged to screen for oral cancer (OC) and oropharyngeal cancer (OP) and promote smoking cessation to their patients. In this study, the authors investigated the prevalence and correlates of receiving OC and OP screening and tobacco and OC and OP counseling from oral health care providers.MethodsThe authors analyzed self-reported survey data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2015-2016 for participants who reported a dental visit. They created different samples for each subanalysis and categorized them according to smoking status. The authors calculated weighted proportions and adjusted odds for receiving tobacco counseling and screening for OC and OP in a dental office.ResultsOverall, 25.85% of US adults 30 years or older who had ever visited an oral health care professional received OC and OP screening. Odds of receiving an OC and OP screening were lower among current cigarette smokers than among never cigarette smokers (adjusted odds ratio AOR], 0.47; 95% confidence interval CI], 0.30 to 0.74) and among non-Hispanic blacks (AOR, 0.36; 95% CI, 0.22 to 0.59), Mexican Americans (AOR, 0.23; 95% CI, 0.10 to 0.53), non-Hispanic Asians (AOR, 0.21; 95% CI, 0.13 to 0.35), and those of other races (AOR, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.24 to 0.65), than among non-Hispanic whites. Participants with a high school education or more had higher odds of receiving an OC and OP screening (AOR, 1.88; 95% CI, 1.04 to 3.43) and counseling for screening (AOR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.07 to 2.51) than did those with less than a high school education. Participants with family incomes of 400% or more of the federal poverty guideline had higher odds of receiving OC and OP screening (AOR, 5.17; 95% CI, 2.06 to 12.94) but lower odds of receiving tobacco counseling (AOR, 0.45; 95% CI, 0.24 to 0.82) than did participants with family incomes of less than 100% of the federal poverty guideline.ConclusionsOral health care providers underscreen for OC and OP among high-risk groups, including current cigarette smokers, minorities, and people of low socioeconomic status. The authors charge oral health care educators to include OC and OP screening and smoking cessation counseling in training and continuing education programs to increase the confidence of oral health care providers.Practical ImplicationsPotential to influence change on current pre-doctoral clinical training programs and to increase opportunities for continuing education courses that review the importance of, as well as, how to successfully complete smoking cessation counseling. |
