The impact of lifestyle factors has been increasingly studied and discussed in oral healthcare. Positive lifestyle factors are important in maintaining oral health or controlling disease, but they are not easy to adopt over the long term. Along with public health initiatives within communities and groups, there is a role for behavior change interventions delivered in dental practice settings to improve the periodontal health of individuals. Behavior management is now seen as a part of both prevention and therapy of periodontal diseases. This article summarizes the evidence on behavioral strategies for periodontal health to inform and assist oral healthcare professionals in implementing behavior change in their practice. In addition, strategies for education and training in communication and behavior change techniques are considered.
生活方式因素对口腔健康的影响已越来越受到研究和讨论。积极的生活方式因素对于维持口腔健康或控制疾病很重要,但长期坚持并不容易。除了在社区和群体中开展公共卫生活动外,在牙科诊疗环境中实施行为改变干预措施也可以改善个人的牙周健康。行为管理现在被视为牙周病预防和治疗的一部分。本文总结了有关牙周健康行为策略的证据,以便为口腔保健专业人员在实践中实施行为改变提供信息和帮助。此外,还考虑了沟通和行为改变技巧教育和培训策略。
