Basic Guide to Oral Health Education and Promotion Summary

Basic Guide to Oral Health Education and Promotion by Ann Felton

The Basic Guide to Oral Health Education and Promotion is the step by step course companion for dental nurses studying for the Certificate in Oral Health Education. In addition it is an invaluable resource for other members of the dental team and health professionals involved in educating and promoting oral health to patients and the wider general public. Each chapter looks at a different aspect of oral health education and promotion in line with the NEBDN syllabus, yet is written in logical sequence for the benefit of those not studying the exam and those in professions other than dental nursing. Topics covered include dental structures, anatomy and physiology, oral diseases and prevention, the principles of education, oral health and society, promoting oral health in the 21st century, patient communication, project planning and workplace assignments.

The short sections and clear layout would also make this a good reference for any dentali professional to use in conjuction with other documents, such as Delivering Better Oral Health: An Evidence-Based Toolkit for Prevention. (Dental Update, 1 July 2011)
