AAPHD President’s Welcome

Welcome to the 14th National Oral Health Conference, the joint scientific meeting of the Association of State and Territorial Dental Directors (ASTDD) and the American Association of Public Health Dentistry (AAPHD). I want to thank the members of ASTDD and AAPHD who participated voluntarily in our conference planning. The conference theme is “Odyssey 2013—Exploring the Oral Health System: Policy, Science and Practice.” This theme encourages a number of inspirational speakers who will challenge us to think differently about what is possible at the confluence of policy, science and practice. The nearby Mitchell Space Flight Center is an example of innovation that can be achieved through imagination, ingenuity, and

involvement. Innovation requires more than just having knowledge; it requires freedom of thought to challenge existing ideas and seek others that are not easily evident. Our conference facility is named after one of the world’s great innovators, Dr. Wernher von Braun. He led the development of the Saturn rocket program that enabled U.S. astronauts in 1969 to escape Earth’s orbit and land on the Moon. Imagination and ingenuity in dental public health has led to innovations that benefit all collectively in society, such as community water fluoridation and dental sealants in school-based settings. In some situations, freedom of thought is triggered by intolerance and strengthened by involvement. In 1965, Alabama state troopers used violence against civil-rights demonstrators to stop a peaceful march against racially discriminatory voting practices. This event, known as “Bloody Sunday,” encouraged others to get involved and hold marches, which influenced the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Imagination is also enhanced by diversity. AAPHD members include scientists, educators, policy makers, and oral health professionals, many of whom are not board certified. Arguably, the diversity of AAPHD encourages imagination, ingenuity and involvement. I thank everyone for attending this special southern conference. I want to thank the American Board of Dental Public Health and the American Association for Community Dental Programs for convening your members as part of this conference. I also appreciate the contribution of other organizations for conference planning and implementation, including the American Dental Association, the Children’s Dental Health Project, and Pew Center for the States, and many others. I sincerely thank our federal partners including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for providing conference resources and support. I also welcome and extend my deep appreciation for the corporate exhibitors who support this conference. Your innovative product and service solutions are wonders of ingenuity and I encourage attendees to visit our exhibitors. AAPHD now officially recognizes 16 student chapters that represent emerging leadership opportunities for innovation and entrepreneurship in dental public health. I want to thank the members of the student chapters who attend this conference and our annual student award winners. Your colleagues will share different ideas, opinions and beliefs that should serve as catalyst for your imagination and engagement. I hope you receive the best of southern hospitality during your stay in Huntsville. Y’all have a great conference!

ASTDD Incoming President’s Welcome

On behalf of the American Association of Public Health Dentistry (AAPHD) and the Association of State and Territorial Dental Directors (ASTDD), I would like to welcome you to Huntsville, Alabama, for the 2013 National Oral Health Conference, the 14th Annual Joint Meeting of our two great dental public health professional associations. The National Oral Health Conference (NOHC) is arguably the best dental public health meeting of its kind. Why? Simply said, there is something at the NOHC for everyone. You will have the opportunity to discover the latest in evidence-based or burgeoning research, state and community best practices, and local grassroots efforts at one of the many sessions, exhibits, and luncheons. Equally

important, you will have the chance to network, conduct business or just converse and share stories with friends. This is the first time the NOHC will be held in Huntsville; we are most excited because it has something for both history and technology buffs. Huntsville boasts a rich history that dates back to the early 19th century. It was named John Hunt who settled here in 1805 alongside what has become known as the “Big Spring.” And the “Big Spring” still flows from a rock bluff and winds through a landscaped park into a city lake. Huntsville soon became a major cotton trading and railroad center in the region for many years; one can still sample the Twickenham historic district in the city, which has the largest collection of pre-Civil War homes in the state. During the Civil War, Huntsville did not experience the same fate as surrounding villages which were burned by the Union Army. As for modern technology, Huntsville is nicknamed the “Rocket City” and it is home to the U.S. Space and Rocket Center because of its historic connection with U.S. space missions. Rocket scientists, including Wernher von Braun, were brought to the city to develop rockets for the U.S. Army. By the end of the 1950’s, the team had developed the rocket that orbited America’s first satellite. They eventually put the first American in space and transported the first astronauts to the moon. The Center, which will host our Tuesday evening reception, contains such attractions as the U.S. Space Camp, Moonbuggy races, as well as opportunities to experience and view astronaut-training activities. Because the Center also offers visitors the ability to feel simulated weightlessness, it will ease any guilt you might have after visiting the many restaurants and bars that Huntsville offers. There are 11 active local breweries in Alabama including 3 in Huntsville. But don’t eat and drink too much since you will want to use the time to discover other Huntsville sites such as the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center at the Redstone Arsenal, the Huntsville Botanical Gardens, the Von Braun Center, and the Huntsville Museum of Art. As always, ASTDD would like to express its appreciation to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention whose continued support has made the success of our organization and meeting possible. We also wish to thank our many organizational and corporate partners and exhibitors who enrich our conference through their generous support and participation. Please be sure to find the time to stop by and visit with the exhibitors during the conference. Finally, it is important to recognize the efforts and commitment of the meeting organizers and planning committees who make the NOHC the formative meeting that it is. Planning for each meeting begins well over a year before the actual event occurs and ranges from choosing the appropriate hors d’oeuvres to selecting the best oral and written presentations from the vast and varied number of outstanding submissions. On behalf of both ASTDD and AAPHD, I welcome you to Huntsville and the 2013 NOHC and invite you to help us make this conference a memorable and successful one. We hope that your experience at the NOHC will be good one and that you find a path to propel our nation’s oral health agenda forward “to infinity and beyond” and to “boldly go where no one has gone before.”

A Speaker’s Training Workshop for Advocates and Spokespersons CDE 4.0

Sponsored by: CDC, Pew Children’s Dental Campaign, ADA, ASTDD Matt Jacob, BA; Linda S. Orgain, MPH; William A. Smith, EdD, PhD; Leslee

Williams, BS More than 65 years of experience and hundreds of studies prove

that community water fluoridation is safe and effective in preventing dental disease. The CDC heralds fluoridation as one of ten great public health achievements of the 20th century. Oral health professionals and advocates are often called upon to explain and defend water fluoridation to the media, government officials and a variety of public audiences. This interactive skill-building session will provide training and tips for speakers, mock interviews with a voluntary videotaping component, and other practical assistance. Evidence-based fluoridation information and resources will be provided. Learn how to effectively frame responses with confidence; structure focused and effective media responses to inquiries; and develop and deliver public presentations and testimony on this important public health topic. Recommended for State Dental Directors and others interested in building their communications skills.

Participants will: 1. Be able to identify common issues in community water fluoridation discussions with media, supporters and opponents. 2. Be better able to frame responses to identified issues. 3. Evaluate and adapt their own styles for media contacts and public presentations. 4. Develop and plan at least two kinds of public presentations.

CDE 3.0 Sponsored by: ADI Mobile and DentaQuest Institute Dori Bingham, BA; Jim Kitch, BA, EMT-I This will be an interactive session focusing on identifying potential

funding sources including foundation and corporate philanthropic organizations, and developing compelling messaging to engage funders, media, legislators, and the public. Presenters will share the Funder’s perspective—what are they looking for in successful programs? How do they measure success? How to demonstrate ROI (Return on Investment) to stakeholders. Common pitfalls and missteps grantees make. If you’re a program that doesn’t bill directly for services (and thus needs to rely on grants/fundraising for sustainability), it’s critically important to demonstrate meaningful outcomes. Learn how!

Learning Objectives: 1. Identify resources for foundation and corporate philanthropic engagement. 2. Describe ways to engage foundation and corporate philanthropic organizations. 3. Communicate Return on Investment. 4. Understand Funders’ perspectives. 5. Develop compelling stories to engage local and federal legislators and the media.

Herndon, PhD; Renee Joskow, DDS, MPH, FAGD; Laurie Norris, JD Oral health measures to examine quality, performance, or progress

toward goals have been developed or are being developed to meet the needs of various federal agencies, comply with legislative requirements, or promote a continuous quality improvement culture in clinical dental and dental public health settings. The metrics proposed by different organizations often sound similar, but have important differences critical to the purpose of each measure set. How do these efforts relate to one another? Are they redundant or coordinated? Will they lead to greater burdens of reporting on state and local programs, community health centers, or private practice dentists? Will they achieve their intended purpose? What role is being taken by: CDC, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), United States Department of Health and Human Services (US DHHS), US National Oral Health Alliance, the National Quality Forum, the Dental Quality Alliance, ASTDD, Medicaid CHIP State Dental Association (MSDA), insurers, and the ADA? This session will update the audience on current efforts and the potential for collaborative efforts to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of oral health care.

Learning Objectives: 1. Participants can describe differences between similar sounding measures used in different settings with different data sources. 2. Participants can identify 5 organizations involved in development of measures for oral health and the primary purpose of each organization’s measure set. 3. Participants can identify which measure set will most impact their primary work setting and the primary work setting of one of their key partners from a different setting.

Integration Activities - CDE 1.5 Sponsored by: ASTDD and the Children’s Dental Health Project Susan Deming, RDH, RDA, BS; Kimberlie Yineman, RDH, BA;

Ali Danner, MPH Oral health is critical to overall health. Oral health stakeholders

interested in engaging and partnering to understand and relate oral health to other chronic medical conditions have incentives to move forward, but tools are still emerging. A pilot tool is an Oral Health Literacy Quiz to use as an “Icebreaker” activity with stakeholders in other chronic disease areas. The Quiz, including variations targeted for stakeholders in areas such as diabetes and heart disease, will be demonstrated and completed by session participants, with discussion to follow. A panel representing states that have piloted the Quiz will share their experience, including benefits and challenges. Selected panelists will also provide an update on objectives and initiatives that relate to current public health goals for chronic disease integration nationwide.

Learning Objectives: 1. Identify new approaches that hold promise for advancing integration of oral disease and other chronic disease activities. 2. Participate in an Oral Health Literacy Quiz that can be utilized by stakeholders in your state. 3. Discuss additional tools and methods and their implementation.

Using the Tools of Quality and Accountability to Improve Oral Health ................................................................South Hall BR 1 Burton Edelstein, DDS, MPH; Ralph Fuccillo, MA; Paul Glassman, DDS,

MA, MBA Across the nation, environmental pressures are building on healthcare

providers to assess and report their costs and outcomes. Patients and payers, abetted by information technology and the Web, are asking for greater accountability from all types of providers. The oral health industry, although less so than the medical industry, has begun to develop strategies to respond. The DentaQuest Institute is convening a broad stakeholder multi-year effort to develop a “road map for using

Page 14: Odyssey 2013 - National Oral Health Conference · Ana Karina Mascarenhas Hermina McLeran Christopher Okunseri Kathy Phipps Georgia Rogers JJ Shelly Woosung Sohn George Taylor Scott

TUESDAY CONTINUED

the tools of quality and accountability to improve oral health for all.” This session will review the evolving use of quality and accountability tools to move general health and oral health toward the “Triple Aim” (better experience of care, better health outcomes, and lower costs). In addition, the DentaQuest facilitated, multi-stakeholder process will be described as well as the roles and responsibilities of advocates and government in driving and facilitating change in quality and accountability by healthcare providers of all types.

Learning Objectives: 1. Describe “tools of quality and accountability” and how they are being applied to oral health care. 2. Describe the multi-stakeholder process convened by the DentaQuest Institute and its expected outcomes. 3. Discuss the sources of “environmental pressure” for healthcare providers of all types to adopt quality metrics and reporting of measures useful in assessing accountability. 4. List roles and responsibilities of advocates and government in driving and facilitating change in quality and accountability by healthcare providers of all types.

Sports Dentistry for Everyone: Education, Policy, Implications, and Importance to the Population ..................................South Hall BR 2

Stephen C. Mills, DDS; Mark Roettger, DDS Millions of people of all ages participate in sports. All athletic activities

contain a risk of injury. Orofacial injuries are not uncommon and are largely preventable. We need to educate players, coaches, athletic trainers, school nurses, sports administrators, and parents as to which sports carry risk, what to do in case of injury, what types of protection exist, and which are most effective. It is important to know which groups are most important to target with our education efforts. These groups include state interscholastic rule-making bodies, national high school and college organizations and individual sports governing bodies such as Little League International and USA Hockey. Several states and national organizations have tried to legislate rules for youth sports with varying degrees of success. This session will summarize what needs to be done to successfully sustain safety legislation and rules. Finally, the most up-to-date information relative to concussions and performance enhancement will be presented.

Learning Objectives: 1. Educate the attendees as to which factors relate to rates of orofacial sports injuries. 2. Educate attendees as to the state of the art in orofacial protective devices. 3. Briefly educate the attendees as to the immediate recognition and treatment of common oroviewfacial injuries. 4. Discuss the major sports rule-setting bodies and how to best influence these groups. 5. Give an historical review of which states have successfully and unsuccessfully tried to increase mouthguard usage. 6. Discuss the factual basis of the mouthguard/concussion connection.

The Changing Dental Hygiene Workforce: Options for Better Oral Health Outcomes .......................................South Hall BR 3 Ann Battrell, MSDH; Susan Deming, RDH, RDA, BS; Christine Farrell, RDH,

BSDH, MPA This session will describe how dental hygienists are contributing to

the success of public health programs across the country. Ann Battrell will highlight how practice acts continue to evolve, allowing dental hygienists to provide oral health services in a host of nontraditional settings without the onsite supervision of a dentist, expanding the public’s access to oral health services. The presentation will showcase the story of Lilia Hamblin, RDH, as she takes us into a day in her world working collaboratively with a nurse practitioner to improve access and care in Oregon. Then Ann Battrell will introduce the story of Marie Doucette, a public health supervision dental hygienist in Maine, and how she has collaborated with a pediatrician to deliver care to hundreds of young children with a strong focus on prevention. Christine Farrell

and Susan Deming will be on hand to explain about PA161 (Public Prevention Program) in Michigan. This law allows dental hygienists through public or non-profit programs to provide direct access to preventive oral health services for underserved populations.

Learning Objectives: Participants will be able to: 1. Describe at least three alternative programs that provide direct access to preventable oral health services for underserved populations. 2. Explain the Oregon and Maine model(s): dental hygienists collaborating with nurse practitioners/dental hygienists collaborating with pediatricians. 3. Discuss the differences in alternative models of dental hygiene in public health.

Portland Water Fluoridation Campaign Lessons Learned ................................................................................South Hall BR 4 Raquel Bournhonesque, MPH; Mel Rader, MS Portland, Oregon, recently enacted water fluoridation, providing more

than 900,000 residents with this community-based intervention. Although past efforts failed, learn why a recent effort made by a broad coalition, fended off local and national anti-fluoridation groups and individuals who cite unsubstantiated science as their basis of concern. Presentations will focus on public health advocates use of the media and political strategies to navigate through difficult political processes. This case study will describe: 1) the policy approach and nature of the debate within a broad coalition; 2) effective types of messages used to influence policymakers, the public, and the media; and 3) political challenges and opportunities to passage. Presenters will focus on the elements of the campaign, including building a coalition of diverse partners, communicating key messages, neutralizing opposition’s arguments, and mobilizing key supporters.

Learning Objectives: 1. Explore the key elements in building a broad coalition and a successful campaign for water fluoridation. 2. Identify anti-fluoridation key arguments and tactics, and effective ways to counter these. 3. Demonstrate how scientific evidence can be communicated effectively to the general public, media, and key decision-makers.

Oral Presentations .........................................................................South Hall BR 5 This session will feature oral presentations of scientific research of

interest to attendees. Presentations are listed beginning on page 26. Please note: Abstracts are not listed in order of presentation. 1. Dental Therapists and Irreversible Restorative Procedures: A

Older Adults and Oral Health-Learning from the Past, Embracing the Present, and Imagining the Future of Care Delivery .............................................................South Hall BR 1 Mary Foley, RDH, MPH; Lillian Mitchell, DDS By 2030, the number of adults ages 65 and older will double, with half

having at least two chronic diseases that consume at least 75% of our healthcare dollars. Despite the knowledge that oral health is integral to maintaining overall health and function, oral health is still fragmented from the delivery of medical care. Despite these challenges, oral health should, and must be part of future innovations in care delivery. Utilizing the findings from Oral Health America’s report, State of Decay 2013, we will compare the progress we have made in caring for older adults compared to children since 2003; examine “real time” solutions and emerging practices for interdisciplinary care; discuss proposed funding polices, including governmental plans and their impact on oral healthcare delivery; and explore innovations and new models of care, and how oral health can, and should be at the table in these chronic disease model developments.

Learning Objectives: 1. Gain an understanding of policies and future trends that will affect the delivery of oral healthcare to older adults, utilizing the concept of interdisciplinary care delivery as an example of emerging trends. 2. Understand new and emerging trends for overall healthcare delivery for older adults, particularly utilizing chronic disease models and how oral health may be inserted in these models. 3. Explore different policies and funding mechanisms that may be available for oral health currently, as well as future policy recommendations.

An Entrepreneurial Approach to Growing State and Local Dental Programs ...................................................South Hall BR 4 Jason Roush, DDS; Kim Tieman When state and local dental programs are faced with level or reduced

budgets, it becomes increasingly difficult for program directors to grow, or even maintain, the infrastructure necessary to perform essential public health functions. “Do the best we can with what we have” is a common reaction to this situation, but it is a default response – not a winning long-term strategy. A more promising leadership strategy is an entrepreneurial approach, where the oral health program aggressively seeks external sources of support to help meet its organizational goals, such as through partnerships with philanthropic foundations, oral health coalitions, and organized dentistry. This session is a case study that describes recent progress made in West Virginia. The panel provides the perspectives of both the state dental director and the project officer of a charitable foundation that has made a significant investment in building oral health infrastructure in the state.

Learning Objectives: 1. Session participants will learn how a state dental director uses an entrepreneurial leadership style to promote infrastructure development. 2.

MS, MBA In January 2011, the California Dental Association Foundation hosted

a symposium on caries management by risk assessment (CAMBRA) in which diverse stakeholders from across the nation discussed the current and future status of CAMBRA. A subsequent SWOT analysis laid the foundation for developing a national strategy for CAMBRA implementation. What is needed to change the mindset of practitioners, payers and the public to embrace this shift in practice philosophy from treatment to prevention? What system changes are needed to improve outcomes and realign allocation of benefits? What is already happening in academia and with Practice-Based Research Networks to model this change and provide visible high impact outcomes? What are the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to universal CAMBRA adoption? Which decision makers are needed to make these system changes a reality? Find and embrace your pivotal role in moving CAMBRA forward. Don’t just dream it…be it!

Learning Objectives: Participants will understand the importance of 1) changing the mindset of practitioners, payers and the public to embrace this shift in practice philosophy from treatment to prevention; 2) catalyzing this change in practice philosophy and providing a viable public health infrastructure to support it in both the public and private sectors; and 3) being able to discuss examples of system models that are already applying these concepts.

Evaluation of the Integrated Dental Medicine Care Model ............................................................................................South Hall BR 3 Sean G Boynes, DMD, MS The overall vision of integrated dental medicine is based on oral health

as an integral aspect to total body wellness (systemic care). Poor oral health can lead to many systemic issues and adverse events as well as poor systemic health leading to adverse oral conditions. It is imperative that providers across all disciplines and with these patient commonalities work together in order to produce positive patient outcomes. This session will review and evaluate the various aspects to this care delivery model as well as provide analysis of currently operating integrated dental medicine clinics. The presenter will also review updates on methodology and outcomes assessment for dental care used for systemic medical treatment.

Learning Objectives: 1. Gain knowledge and understanding on how dentistry improves medical outcomes. 2. Discuss the role of dental care providers as screeners for medical disease. 3. Evaluate the current use of non-dentist clinicians and its impact on the patient experience. 4. Discuss the enhancement of inter-professional relationships.

Understanding the Prospective Payment System .....................................................................................................South Hall BR 4 Mary Foley, RDH, MPH; Lynn Mouden, DDS, MPH; Ted Waters, Esq. The Prospective Payment System (PPS) or the often called “encounter

rate” system, is the method by which most community health centers receive reimbursement for oral health care services. PPS rates can be highly variable between states, and within states between service

1. DENTAL THERAPISTS AND IRREVERSIBLE RESTORATIVE PROCEDURES: A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF THE EVIDENCE ON TECHNICAL COMPETENCE AND QUALITY OF CARE

Elizabeth Phillips (1), PHD, MSSW, H. Luke Shaefer (1), PhD University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA

Dental therapists are members of the dental team in many countries, where they perform a limited number of irreversible restorative procedures. In the U.S. they currently practice only in Alaska and Minnesota, although other states are considering adding them in an effort to improve access to oral health care. While critics of this workforce model cite concern for patient safety, proponents argue that dental therapists provide treatment that is as technically competent as that provided by dentists.

Objectives: While nearly two dozen studies from industrialized countries address this subject, there is no comprehensive review of their findings. We attempt to fill this gap by looking at the existing literature to determine what can be concluded about the quality of care provided by non-dentists performing irreversible restorative procedures.

Methods: We identify and review all 23 studies addressing this topic, and present them in a way that makes it easy to compare methodologies and findings.

Results: Of these reports, all but two conclude that dental therapists performed at an acceptable level. Every study that directly compared their work to dentists or dental students found that the therapists (or specially-trained hygienists) performed at least as well.

Conclusions: While dental therapists are not the only solution for improving access to oral health care, the existing evidence clearly suggests they are clinically competent to perform the limited set of irreversible procedures that falls within their scope of practice. Whether they are able to safely treat patients should no longer be a point of contention.

2. ENGAGING YOUTH IN DENTAL CAREERS – LET THE TOOTH BE TOLD

Sharon Grundel (1), Med, Suzette Naylor (1), RDH MassAHEC Network, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA, USA (1), Berkshire Area Health Education Center, Pittsfield, MA, USA (2)

Objectives: The participants will be able to: a) Describe a workforce development program that introduces high school students to career options in the dental field; b) Summarize an educational approach that helps students to recognize the multi-cultural crisis in the dental field and the need for minority providers in dentistry to reduce barriers to equitable care; and c) Recognize the connection between oral health and total health and emphasize the important role of the dentist and dental hygienist in maintaining the total health of the patients.

Methods and Results: This presentation will showcase curricula about an Oral Health Careers program that was developed by a dental hygienist and educator to introduce educationally disadvantaged high school students to careers in the dental field. The core components focus on workforce development, equitable access to dental care and diversity by teaching students about the multi-cultural crisis in America due to the underrepresentation of minorities in dentistry. The program also uses interactive and engaging lesson plans, at the introductory and intermediate level,

to provide an overview of the basics of good oral health and emphasize the important connections between oral health and total health, while engaging students around career options in the dental field. Opportunities to integrate dental career information into the standard high school curriculum are included. Ideas for engaging oral health hands-on activities, games, guest speakers and the outcome performance assessments will be available for discussion and demonstration.

Conclusion: The curriculum will be available for attendees and is easily replicated.

Objectives: To describe the systematic screening and assessment methodology for identifying promising and innovative workforce practices that increase access to and availability of preventive oral health services.

Methods: We solicited nominations of workforce models and innovations that utilized dental providers or other providers in non-dental settings; new types of professionals trained to provide preventive services; or new preventive practices that prioritize prevention, risk assessment, and disease management. Using a set of criteria related to potential impact, generalizability, feasibility of implementation, an expert panel selected 25 innovations for evaluability assessments to determine whether the innovations were ready for a rigorous, outcome-based evaluation. Each evaluability assessment was conducted by 2 researchers and included the development of a logic model, a 3-day site visit to stakeholders, and a summary report describing the innovation and potential evaluation design options. After reviewing the results of the evaluability assessments, the expert panel determined which programs appeared ready for evaluation.

Results: We received nominations from 99 organizations and conducted evaluability assessments of 25 innovations across the country. Based on the findings of the evaluability assessment, expert panel members found a number of innovations ready for a rigorous evaluation.

Conclusions: While the workforce models and innovations we examined typically had clinical data available, very few are conducting rigorous evaluations to measure outcomes and impact. Further, provisions of the Affordable Care Act will affect delivery of health services, and a thorough evaluation of these innovations may be used to inform new approaches to access issues under health care reform.

Objective: To present novel ways to develop or update school curriculum using a ready-to-use DPH curriculum for pre-doctoral programs.

Methods: The authors used an evaluative process to develop ready-to-use DPH curriculum for pre-doctoral dental and dental hygiene education programs, including: 1) Selection of a curriculum experts who developed 8 DPH competencies 2) Identification of 23 DPH themes by a curriculum sub-committee; 3) Consolidation into 5 module content areas which were reviewed and approved by the curriculum experts; 4) Creation of syllabi and learning objectives for each module; and 5) Development of 8-hour PowerPoint presentations, instructor guides, and student activities for each of the approved five curriculum modules: Principles of DPH; Evidence Based Dentistry; Comparison of Practitioner and DPH Ethics; Policy, Advocacy and Inter-professional Care; and Prevention and Oral Health Promotion.

Results: A variety of options will be discussed regarding how this ready-to-use curriculum may be implemented by schools and instructors: 1) Develop new curriculum for a program by a new or experienced instructor; 2) Update existing in-class curriculum using selected lectures, student activities and instructor guides; 3) Expand existing curriculum using selected lectures or student activities; 4) Create an online course for all or a portion of the DPH curriculum to augment or accommodate student rotations; 5) Develop a DPH selective available to students participating in AAPHD student chapters.

Conclusions: A DPH curriculum has been developed and is available for use in dental and dental hygiene programs.

Funding: This program was supported by Health Resources and Service Administration grant, D83HP19949.

Bonnie Branson (1), RDH, PhD, Becky Smith (1), DDS; University of Missouri-Kansas City-School of Dentistry, Kansas City, MO, USA (1), University of Missouri-Kansas City-School of Dentistry, Kansas City, MO, USA (2)

Objectives: Discuss the process of developing a dental home in a long-term care facility. Discuss methods of overcoming barriers associated with providing dental care in a long-term care facility.

Methods: An on-site dental home was established in a long-term care facility utilizing a team approach of a dentist and dental hygienist. Funds were secured by a local health care foundation. The process required multiple activities. These included engagement of all stakeholders; securing funds; ordering equipment; managing legal consents; developing billing procedures; providing care; analyzing data and establishing sustainability.

Results: 65 residents of a long-term care facility have utilized the services offered in this project and received preventive and restorative care. Oral conditions have been monitored and improvement is seen in the areas of oral cleanliness and access to care. Establishing sustainability has been an on-going activity and continues to produce challenges.

Conclusions: This paper will describe the steps followed to engage stakeholders, secure funds, order equipment, provide care, analyze data and establish sustainability. The paper will describe barriers that were encountered and suggest ways that these can be avoided by others seeking to establish a dental home in a long-term care facility.

6. CHANGES IN CARIES IN PRIMARY DENTITION FROM 1988-1994 TO 1999-2004 AMONG U.S. CHILDREN AGED 2-5 YEARS: A CLOSER LOOK

Mei Lin, MD, MSc, Eugenio Beltrãn, DMD, MPH, DrPH, Laurie Barker, MSPH, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, USA

Objectives: To examine degree and directionality of changes from 1988-1994 to 1999-2004 in prevalence and severity of dental caries by a combination of race/ethnicity and poverty status among U.S. children aged 2-5 years.

Methods: Analyses included 5,735 Non-Hispanic-White (NHW), Non-Hispanic-Black (NHB), and Mexican-American (MA) children from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, who had poverty status information (≤100% Federal Poverty Level (FPL), 101%-200% FPL, >200% FPL) and completed the oral health examination. Caries prevalence was defined as having ≥1 dft. Untreated caries prevalence was defined as having ≥1 dt. Severity was measured by mean dft, dt, and ft. Adjusted absolute changes (AAC) from 1988-1994 to 1999-2004 for nine groups defined by race/ethnicity and poverty status were assessed by predicted marginal probabilities and means with control of medical insurance status. Statistical significance of AAC was determined at p-value≤0.05. Analyses accounted for the complex sampling design.

Results: Three groups NHW-≤100%FPL, NHW->200%FPL, and NHB-≤100%FPL showed significant increases in certain caries outcomes. The pattern of the increase varied. The increases for NHW->200%FPL and NHB-≤100%FPL were predominantly due to an increase in dt (AAC=0.11, 95% CI: 0-0.22) or ft (AAC=0.27, 95% CI: 0.01-0.54) respectively. The NHW-≤100%FPL showed the highest increase in most caries outcomes among the nine groups though only the increase in dft (AAC=1.18, 95% CI: 0.24-2.11) was significant.

Conclusions: Changes in caries among children aged 2-5 years from 1988-1994 to 1999-2004 varied in pattern, degree and directionality among groups defined by race/ethnicity and poverty combinations, suggesting complex disparity patterns.

Objective: To compare patterns of dental procedures received by children enrolled in the Wisconsin Medicaid Program administered as capitated plans through Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) in four southeastern counties in Wisconsin and the fee-for-service (FFS) plans in other parts of the state.

Methods: We analyzed enrollment and claims data for 0-18 year old children enrolled in Wisconsin Medicaid (2002-2008). Children were categorized into 4 groups based on insurance type and residence in designated dental Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs) into HPSA-HMO, non-HPSA-HMO, HPSA-FFS, and non-HPSA-FFS groups. Descriptive and multivariable analysis using Poisson generalized estimating equation modeling were performed to test for differences in the receipt of dental procedures by children in each category, after adjusting for age and year of treatment.

Results: Overall, 371, 609 and 231, 885 children were enrolled in FFS and HMO plans over the study period. Approximately 3%, 8%, 34% and 42% of HPSA-HMO, non-HPSA-HMO, HPSA-FFS, and non-HPSA-FFS children had at least one preventive procedure in a year, respectively. Compared to children in HPSA-HMO group, children in the other three groups were significantly more likely to receive all dental procedures examined. For example, children in the non-

28

HPSA-FFS group had more than seven times as many preventive procedures when compared to children in the HPSA-HMO group.

Conclusions: Children under FFS plans had more dental visits and more preventive or treatment procedures compared to children in HMO plans. Similarly, residents of HPSA regions had fewer visits and procedures in both plans.

8. CALORIES, CARIES and CULTURE: THE RELATIONSHIP OF BODY MASS INDEX AND ORAL HEALTH STATUS IN 3RD GRADE SCHOOL CHILDREN

Jon Roesler, MS, Bilquis Khan Jiwani, MSc, MBA, MSc, David Simmons, MPH, Merry Jo Thoele, MPH, RDH, Minnesota Department of Health, St. Paul, MN, USA

Objective: This analysis is to investigate the association between body mass index (BMI) and oral health outcomes measured by the basic screening survey (BSS) including caries experience, sealant prevalence, and treatment urgency in 3rd grade Minnesota school children.

Methods: The Minnesota Department of Health included measures for BMI calculation from height and weight data collected when conducting a statewide BSS that measured caries experience, sealant prevalence, and treatment urgency. Demographic information collected included date of birth, gender, and race/ethnicity. School-based measures were also obtained, including urban/rural and proportion of children eligible for free and reduced lunch pricing. Populations were a representative, state-wide, sample of 3rd grade Minnesota school children, and a sentinel population selected from notably high risk students (high proportions of recent immigrants, minority status, and free and reduced lunches) Participants were actively consented from 40 randomly selected schools and 10 sentinel schools, all within Minnesota.

Results: Preliminary results indicate that caries status, lack of sealants, unhealthy weight (over/under-weight), and attendance at a school with a high proportion of free and reduced lunches are positively correlated.

Conclusions: Detected inequities should be addressed by targeted prevention/intervention activities with progress measured by similar surveys done at five-year intervals. Prevention and intervention activities may differ depending on the type of disparity being addressed (e.g., regional vs. racial differences). The data indicate a need to further assess dietary intake along with oral health status. Dietary intake indicators alone may help in determining patterns of eating associated with risk for dental disease.

9. THE EFFECT OF MEDICAID PRIMARY CARE PROVIDER REIMBURSEMENT ON ACCESS TO EARLY CHILDHOOD CARIES PREVENTIVE SERVICES

Jill Herndon, PhD, Scott Tomar, DMD, MPH, DrPH, Frank Catalanotto, DMD, Elizabeth Shenkman, PhD, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA

Objectives: Early childhood caries is a significant national problem that disproportionately affects low-income children. Two-thirds of state Medicaid programs have implemented reimbursement to medical primary care providers (M-PCPs) to provide early childhood caries preventive services (ECCPS). However, there is limited rigorous evaluation of these policies. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of M-PCP reimbursement on access to ECCPS using data from the Florida and Texas Medicaid programs and to examine disparities in ECCPS receipt among vulnerable subgroups, including children with special health care needs (CSHCN) and racial/ethnic minorities.

Methods: Data sources include child-level longitudinal enrollment databases linked to claims data for children 0-3 years old in Florida and Texas Medicaid from 2006-2010. Modified Poisson regression, combined with generalized estimating equations, is used to estimate the effect of M-PCP reimbursement on the likelihood of an ECCPS visit. The key predictor is a dichotomous variable indicating pre/post implementation of M-PCP reimbursement. Covariates include health status, age, race/ethnicity, gender, rural/urban residence, and enrollment duration.

Results: M-PCP reimbursement was significantly and positively associated with an increase in ECCPS receipt (IRR=1.107; p<0.001). CSHCN, those with longer enrollment spans, older children and Hispanic and non-Hispanic blacks were more likely to have an ECCPS visit.

Conclusions: M-PCP reimbursement improves access to ECCPS and may reduce disparities. Ongoing research is needed to evaluate longer-term effects and to identify additional strategies to continue to improve access to ECCPS with particular attention to sub-populations at increased risk of not receiving these essential caries preventive services.

10. THE BURDEN OF DENTAL PROBLEMS ON OHIO’S EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS

Amber Detty (1), MA, Julia Kranenburg (2), MPH candidate, Ohio Department of Health, Columbus, OH, USA, (1), The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA (2)

Objectives: When it comes to treating dental problems, emergency departments (EDs) are an expensive and ineffective way of delivering dental care. ED physicians are only able to temporarily alleviate pain and infection, leaving the underlying dental disease untreated. The purpose of this analysis is to explore the burden of non-trauma related dental problems on EDs in Ohio.

Methods: Data was provided by the Ohio Hospital Association (OHA) for an 18-month period from January 2010 through June 2011. Data for patients who visited the ED with a primary diagnosis code that indicated a non-traumatic dental problem were analyzed. Medicaid claims data for enrollees provided through the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services using the same diagnosis criteria was also analyzed.

Results: Preliminary results indicate that during this 18-month period, almost 100,000 visits to Ohio EDs were associated with non-trauma related dental problems. The charges for these visits total over $58 million; $24 million for uninsured patients and an equal amount for patients covered by public insurance.

Conclusions: In Ohio, there are almost 200 visits per day to the ED for non-trauma related dental problems, costing more than $100,000 each day, mostly for uninsured or publically-insured patients. Since the data provided by OHA is limited to member hospitals (OHA members include 167 out of an estimated 250 hospitals in Ohio), this is likely an underestimation of the burden to Ohio EDs.

11. BRUSH: A LITERACY-BASED ORAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM FOR PRESCHOOLS SERVING LOW-INCOME POPULATIONS, DESIGNED TO REDUCE PEDIATRIC DENTAL DECAY AND IMPROVE SCHOOL READINESS

Holli Seabury, MA McMillen Center for Health Education, Fort Wayne, IN, USA Objective: To reduce pediatric dental decay in low-income

preschoolers (ages birth through 5 years) through parent education, preschool teacher training and weekly curricular activities, while promoting the link between dental health and school readiness.

Methods: The McMillen Center is collaborating with Early Head Start and Head Start preschools to train teachers and home visitors on the importance of primary teeth, how to prevent decay, and the link between oral health and school readiness. Low literacy, colorful educational materials are distributed to parents twice a month; children receive a weekly educational lesson through their preschool, a monthly brushing chart, and a book about brushing their teeth. Materials are also available in Spanish.

Results: In the first program year Brush is serving 2,500 low-income preschoolers in Northeast Indiana. In 2012–2013 the program will be offered nationwide, with an online video training component.

Conclusions: Preschool directors and teachers see the negative results of dental decay, but do not feel they have the training or the resources to address the issue. They have enthusiastically embraced the Brush program because it encourages literacy, focuses on the link between dental health and school readiness, and educates parents about oral health and nutrition in an easy to understand manner.

Funding: Private foundations (Schneider Foundation, Isaac Knapp Dental Education Foundation, PNC Foundation).

12. TOBACCO CESSATION GUIDELINES FOR DENTISTRY: IMPLEMENTING A 5AS PROGRAM FOR DENTAL STUDENTS

David Albert (1), DDS, MPH, Sharifa Williams (1), MPH, CPH, MA, Angela Ward(1), Cindi Wiesenfeld (1), Noreen Myers-Wright (1), RDH, MA, CHES, Cindy Smalletz (2), MA, Columbia University College of Dental Medicine, New York, NY, USA (1), Columbia Center for New Media Teaching and Learning, New York, NY, USA (2)

Objective: A web-based, self-paced, interactive module on tobacco cessation was developed and evaluated for effectiveness.

Methods: The course consists of 3 sections: Pre-exam, Post-exam, and Helping Your Patient Quit. These are designed to align with typical dental practice and help students assimilate tobacco cessation counseling into their clinic experience. The educational content in the program is presented as text and video, brief interactive knowledge and skills assessments, and a final virtual patient exercise. The module was fully incorporated into the curriculum after two phases of usability testing and revision. Prior to viewing or taking the tobacco course, students were administered a survey to assess pre-program tobacco related knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors. Follow-up surveys are being administered at yearly intervals until graduation.

Results: Results from the pre-survey are presented for 72 sophomore dental students. Nearly all students (87%) think a dentist

should be responsible for tobacco use cessation activities. Students also believed that tobacco cessation was an important component of a preventive dentistry program (78%). At baseline about half the class (46%) thought dentists were only somewhat successful at helping their patients quit. After viewing the module, nearly 30% thought dentists were very successful at helping patients quit and 63% thought dentists were somewhat successful.

Conclusions: The course is designed to provide knowledge and skills on how to incorporate tobacco cessation into clinical practice, and to encourage dentist participation in tobacco cessation counseling.

Funding: None.
