Bruce A. Dye, Gina Thornton-Evans, Xianfen Li, and Timothy J. Iafolla. Caries and Sealant Prevalence in Children and Adolescents in the United States, 2011–2012. NCHS Data Brief ■No. 191 ■ March 2015

Role of Dental Providers

• Dental offices are ideal settings for encouraging children to choose healthy beverages, as part of conducting caries risk assessments and disease management.

• Motivational interviewing technique is very effective in influencing behavior.

• Parents and children are more likely to follow the advice from a dentist than from other sources of oral health information.
