Synopsis

This guide will equip health care professionals and carers with the core knowledge and skills involved in good oral health care. One of the primary uses of the book is to provide foundation information for use in continuing education and training; the first section provides the basic knowledge and skills needed, while later sections highlight the specific needs of different client groups with different health conditions and requirements. This accessible guide is divided into four distinct sections: Principles and practice of oral health care - this section covers the main oral diseases and the basic principles and practice of oral care. It concludes with a chapter on dental services and the different types of dental team; Oral assessment and care - looks at the guidelines, criteria and procedure for assessing oral health needs, based on a wide variety of settings; At-risk groups: people with a specific need - a comprehensive review of the more common conditions and diseases and their possible impact on oral health, including medication and treatment; and Oral health promotion approaches and practices - examines how oral health promotion can be more fully integrated into wider health promotion.
