Primary Care Sinks its Teeth into Oral Health!

Any Providers, Prescribers, and Clinical Teams:

"How does making a dental referral help our patients?"

It can be tempting to think that unless you're a dentist, oral health isn't a pressing concern - similar to how behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment were considered before integration became the norm. The reality is that integrating oral health care referrals into your practice’s workflow can yield substantial benefits in the health of your patients.

Small changes can have a big impact at key moments (like childhood or pregnancy) across a patient's life cycle.

Oregon Health Plan members also have a comprehensive dental plan with benefits they often aren't aware of that can substantially improve their overall health.

Join experts including Legacy Medical Group Midwifery Social Worker and Project Nurture Team Lead Chelsea Barbour, LCSW and Clinical Lead Diana Smith, CNM, MPH; Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioners Kerrin Swanson, CPNP-PC and Erin Oldenkamp, CPNP-PC from Adventist Health, to discover how quick and easy modern dental referrals can be and how simple integration can make a powerful difference in the lives of the people we care for.
