Substance Use Screening Among Adolescents: National Dental Practice-Based Research Network Survey
This is the first national study of dentists' SUD screening, counseling and referral practices among adolescent patients. Although current rates are low, a substantial proportion of dentists indicated willingness to screen, counsel and refer adolescents for SUD and endorsed surprisingly low rates of stigma and high ratings of relevance to their practice.
