Oral health conditions, such as dental caries, pose a substantial burden worldwide. Although there are many risk factors for poor oral health, diet is often implicated as a cause of these issues. The purpose of this scoping review was to identify and map studies that have captured information on the "real-world" nutrition care practices of oral health professionals (OHPs) and dietitians to optimize oral health, and specifically the dentition and periodontium.
A search of peer-reviewed articles was conducted using MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Embase. Articles that addressed the review objective and met the following criteria were included: English language, published since 2000, and study conducted in a high-income country.
Overall, 70 articles were included. Most articles reported on cross-sectional survey studies and provided self-reported data on OHP practices; few articles reported on dietitians. Most articles reported only general/unspecific information on assessment and intervention practices, such as dietary analysis, nutrition counselling, and diet advice, and lacked specific information about the care provided, such as the dietary assessment tools used, type of information provided, and time spent on these activities. Barriers to the provision of nutrition care by OHPs were common and included time and lack of remuneration. Few studies reported on collaboration between dietitians and OHPs.
Several studies have captured self-reported information on nutrition care practices of OHPs related to oral health; however, there is limited information available on the details of the care provided. Few studies have examined the practices of dietitians.
口腔健康问题，如龋齿，在全球范围内造成了沉重负担。尽管口腔健康不佳存在许多风险因素，但饮食常被认为是这些问题的一个成因。本范围综述的目的是识别和梳理那些获取了口腔健康专业人员（OHP）和营养师为优化口腔健康，特别是牙列和牙周组织的“现实世界”营养护理实践信息的研究。
使用MEDLINE、CINAHL和Embase对同行评审文章进行检索。纳入了符合以下标准且涉及综述目标的文章：英文、2000年以后发表、在高收入国家开展的研究。
总共纳入了70篇文章。大多数文章报告的是横断面调查研究，并提供了关于OHP实践的自我报告数据；很少有文章报告营养师的情况。大多数文章仅报告了评估和干预实践的一般/非特定信息，如饮食分析、营养咨询和饮食建议，缺乏关于所提供护理的具体信息，如所使用的饮食评估工具、提供的信息类型以及在这些活动上花费的时间。OHP提供营养护理的障碍很常见，包括时间和缺乏报酬。很少有研究报告营养师和OHP之间的合作情况。
有几项研究获取了OHP与口腔健康相关的营养护理实践的自我报告信息；然而，关于所提供护理细节的可用信息有限。很少有研究考察过营养师的实践情况。
