“…Oral health risk assessment is of key importance for determining management strategies 28 and delivering patient education, with the aim of improving oral health behaviours. 29 Changes in the delivery of dental services in the National Health Service in England are currently being piloted. 30 These changes include the implementation of a specific oral health risk assessment to be carried out by dentists for patients.…”

Background: Effective implementation of healthcare initiatives is of key importance for ensuring high-quality clinical and health outcomes. Using Normalization Process Theory, this study investigates the implementation behaviour of dental students in relation to a novel oral health risk assessment tool. It considers the impact of advancing learning on normalisation of innovative healthcare practice.Methods: Students completed the NoMAD (normalisation of complex interventionsmeasure development) questionnaire and an additional scale to assess perceived value of the oral health risk assessment tool, after having used the tool for nearly one academic year. The sample comprised third-(n = 75), fourth-(n = 77) and fifthyear (n = 37) students. Differences between groups in relation to the four generative processes of normalisation were analysed using ANOVA. Cohen's d effect sizes were calculated between groups. Multiple linear regression was undertaken to investigate the impact of normalisation level on value/utility judgements.Results: There were significant group differences for three of the four generative processes of normalisation (coherence, cognitive participation and reflexive monitoring). Third-and fourth-year students were highly similar but these groups showed lower normalisation compared to fifth years. Normalisation assessment predicted perceived value and utility of the oral health risk assessment tool. Conclusions:The findings suggest that dental students show lower normalisation of novel tools at earlier stages in their course, possibly due to increased cognitive load, and that perceived value and utility of a novel tool is related to increased normalisation.

“…Prognostication of treated periodontitis subjects at both tooth and patient level is often carried out to forecast long‐term tooth survival and predict future periodontal stability after comprehensive therapy . Such a practice is aimed at informing patients of possible treatment outcomes and aids in formulation of SPT protocols…”

“…Careful communication of the risks and benefits of treatment is therefore needed to manage patient expectations. In addition, emphasising the benefits of behaviour change, rather than the harms of not changing behaviour, may be an effective approach to communicating risk to patients [42].…”

Introduction: For effective risk communication, clinicians must understand patients' values and beliefs in relation to the risks of treatment. This qualitative study aimed to explore adolescent perceptions of orthodontic treatment risks and risk information. Methods: Five focus groups were carried out with 32 school/college pupils aged 12-18 in Wales, UK. Participants were purposively selected and had all experienced orthodontic treatment. A thematic approach was used for analysis and data collection was completed at the point of data saturation. Results: Four themes emerged from the data; (a) day-to-day risks of orthodontic treatment, (b) important orthodontic risk information, (c) engaging with orthodontic risk information and (d) managing the risks of orthodontic treatment. Day-to-day risks of orthodontic treatment that were affecting participants "here and now" were of most concern. Information about preventing the risks of treatment was deemed to be important. Participants did not actively seek risk information but engaged passively with information from convenient sources. Perceptions of risk susceptibility influenced participants' management of the risks of orthodontic treatment. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that adolescent patients can understand information about the nature and severity of orthodontic treatment risks. However, adolescent patients can have false perceptions if the risks are unfamiliar, perceived only to have a future impact or if seen as easy to control. Adolescent patients must be provided with timely and easily accessible risk information and with practical solutions to prevent the risks of treatment. Clinical significance: The views and experiences gathered in this study can assist clinicians to better understand their young patients' beliefs about treatment risks, facilitate effective risk communication and contribute to improved patient-centred care.
