ACP offers new Oral Health Patient FACTS for physicians

Oral Health Patient FACTS aim to improve patients' oral health literacy by providing information about how oral health and overall health are connected.


ACP has teamed up with New York University Rory Meyers College of Nursing's Oral Health Nursing Education and Practice Program to create 4 new patient-related oral health literacy fact sheets.

The Oral Health Patient FACTS were designed to be user-friendly and easy to understand. They aim to improve patients' oral health literacy by providing information about how oral health and overall health are connected. Versions are available for free in both English and Spanish.

The new fact sheets cover the following topics: Oral Health Overview (Spanish version) , Oral Health and Diabetes (Spanish version) , Oral Health and Older Adults (Spanish version) , and Oral Health and HPV (Spanish version) .
