For progressive dentists and dental hygienists who are looking for a credible and effective way to screen dental patients for diabetes and cardiovascular disease, the Questionnaire to Screen Dental Patients for Diabetes & Cardiovascular Disease incorporates the most recent risk factors and screening criteria of the American Diabetes Association, American Heart Association, and other authorities.

Recent research suggests that dentists and dental hygienists are uniquely positioned to identify patients who may have undiagnosed diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and to refer them to medical providers. The diabetes screening section includes a BMI chart that prompts patients to self screen for overweight and obesity. The 2- sided questionnaire also incorporates graphics that capture patients’ attention, making it very user friendly. The questionnaire provides a cut-to-the-chase way to screen dental patients for these life threatening diseases by incorporating it into new patient records, and updates of medical histories. Others have commented that the use of this questionnaire has signaled to patients that their dental practice is committed to looking beyond the oral cavity and a distinguishing factor in practice excellence.

Each package includes 100 individual questionnaires.
