Core Tip |
We investigated dialysis patients’ awareness and attitudes about preventive dental visits, and tried to clarify the barriers to visiting the dentist. Subjects included 141 dentate outpatients receiving hemodialysis treatment. We interviewed participants using a structured questionnaire. The common reasons dialysis patients cited for not seeking dental care were lack of concern and/or lack of awareness of the importance of preventive dental visits. Medical practitioners rarely refer dialysis patients for dental care. Our findings suggest that dialysis patients should be educated about the importance of preventive dental care. Medical providers are expected to participate in promoting dental visits among dialysis patients. |
