Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The overarching goal of this project is to reduce smoking-associated morbidity and mortality by increasing the number of patients who are referred for tobacco cessation counseling. Using a stratified, group-randomized, controlled, 2-arm trial conducted in two settings, the investigators will compare smoking-related clinical decision support (CDS) to usual care.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This project aims to reduce smoking-associated morbidity and mortality by increasing the number of patients who are referred for tobacco cessation counseling. The study team will evaluate the effectiveness of clinical decision support (CDS) to improve dental provider delivery of brief tobacco interventions and referrals to tobacco quitlines for further tobacco counseling. The CDS will generate personalized, evidence-based recommendations for dentists and dental hygienists to actively engage their smoking patients in the course of usual dental care. Subsequently, the study team will assess the tobacco cessation actions of smokers using patient-centered outcomes.
