“…19,25 This finding is similar to the findings of Gould et al, who found 25 percent of the dental team cited the lack of knowledge regarding referrals was a barrier to counseling. 27 In this study, 5.9 percent or less of dental hygienists asked about tobacco use assisted to quit or arranged follow-up for more than 80 percent of all patients. This finding seems unusual considering 88.2 percent of dental hygienists agreed or strongly agreed that they can be effective in helping patients to stop smoke.…”

“…18 Previous research has identified that a common factor influencing tobacco cessation activities is the lack of time. [24][25][26][27][28][29] Albert et al, for example, found that 87.5 percent of dentists indicated time was a barrier to implementing TCC. 8 Merely 4.0 percent of dental hygienists in this study agreed or strongly agreed that TCC was not an efficient use of time.…”

“…Identified frustrations from previous research include negative feedback from patients, patient resistance, and lack of patient interest. 26,27,29 Successful TCC education includes discussion of why counseling may be frustrating. Using case studies based on patients who are resistant, uninterested, or negative may provide dental hygienists with an opportunity to discuss how to counsel these types of patients.…”

The purposes of this pilot study were as follows: 1) to determine the percentage and frequency of dental hygiene graduates who were providing tobacco cessation counseling (TCC) activities, after receiving TCC training during their formative years of education; 2) to identify the graduates' stages of change using the transtheoretical model regarding TCC; and 3) to identify factors influencing the delivery of TCC. A convenience sample of fifty-one Minnesota State University, Mankato (MSU) dental hygiene graduates were surveyed in this study. Wilcoxen signed rank tests were used to analyze the relationship between counseling actions and dental hygienists' stage of change in four TCC activities: asking, advising, assisting, and arranging follow-up. Pros and cons affecting the delivery of TCC were also examined. Findings indicate that dental hygienists who received TCC education during their training do not provide cessation counseling to a high percentage of their patients even though they believe in the value of such activity. However, dental hygienists are more likely to provide TCC to patients with periodontal disease than other dental patients. Conclusions: 1) addressing the potential frustration of the dental hygienist and coping methods when providing TCC during training may alleviate one of the barriers to TCC; 2) ready access to tobacco education materials may alleviate one of the barriers to TCC; and 3) emphasis during TCC training on providing education for all patients as part of health promotion, rather than just periodontal patients, may increase the overall counseling provided.

“…A review by the Cochrane Collaboration (Lancaster et al 2000) on the training of health professionals in smoking cessation concluded that health-care professionals who were trained were better at delivering smoking cessation interventions, although they also highlighted that successful outcomes may be modest. A study carried out by Gould et al (1998) on the impact of National Cancer Institute training on clinical tobacco use cessation found that dentists were more likely to implement some cessation services in their practice following training. In the present study, 44% of periodontists and 39% of hygienists had received recognized training in smoking cessation activities.…”

“…1 Important research has occurred showing that dental students and medical students can be effectively trained in communication and history-taking skills, often with the use of standardized patients. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Although several investigations have addressed the effect of training dentists and dental hygienists in smoking cessation on their attitudes and effectiveness in implementing smoking cessation in practice, [9][10][11][12] very few studies have looked at how training in counseling skills can change dentists' behavior (an exception is Tay et al 13 ).…”

The purpose of this research was to explore the changes that occurred in dental students' counseling techniques as a result of training in Brief Motivational Interviewing (BMI). A randomized pretest, posttest design was used with eleven students in each group. Baseline and posttraining measures of students' counseling techniques and the characteristics of the counseling session with standardized patients were made. The measures were: student behavior from videotapes, patient involvement in the treatment, establishment of good doctor-patient rapport, perceived efficacy in promoting patient change, and student confidence and interest in the task. MANOVA found significant differences between the trained and the untrained groups (F=4.019, p=0.018). Training resulted in sessions in which students used more BMI techniques and patients were more actively involved. No changes were seen in the other variables. Future studies must examine whether more experience will improve the students' ability to use BMI to enhance patient rapport, to increase their sense of competence and interest in doing counseling, and to determine the effectiveness of the counseling to encourage patient smoking cessation.
