  • FDA Safety Update on Sedation and General Anesthesia Drugs

    Posted in bOHP Smart Briefs on 2017-01-17 20:55:43

    Dear bOHP Subscribers,

     

    Some of you may deliver oral health care for children using sedation or general anesthesia. The FDA has developed a safety announcement for the use of sedation or anesthetic drugs during procedures for children younger than 3 years and pregnant women during their third trimester. Check it out!

     

    Wishing you all a great spring!

                                                                                    

       Best Wishes,

                                                                                       The bOHP Team

  • Predicting Caries Risk in Children

    Posted in bOHP Smart Briefs on 2016-06-29 15:39:41

    Dear bOHP Subscribers,

    Happy Summer! In this issue, we are highlighting an article in the Journal of Dental Research by UNC's Dr. Kimon Divaris, who discusses in depth whether it is possible to predict caries risk in children - the result may surprise you! An interview with Dr. Divaris is included below, where he addresses the major argument he makes in his article. A link to the article can be found here (subscription required).
                                                                                       Best Wishes,

  • Updated Caregiver Interview and Report Card

    Posted in bOHP Smart Briefs on 2015-09-09 09:17:38

    Dear bOHP Providers,

    To improve the information covered during each bOHP visit, we have made some edits to the Caregiver Interview and Clinical Charting found in the "CHARTING" panel of the bOHP website. We have also updated the bOHP Report Card with a color-coded caries risk assessment to allow caregivers to better visualize their child's risk as it relates to your oral health recommendations.

    Check out a copy of the changes at the end of this message. We hope they will help to better capture the essence of the visit and facilitate your communiation with caregivers about their infant/toddler.

    Best Wishes,

    The bOHP Team
