Bringing trauma-informed care to the dental chair

Dental health professionals can use simple strategies in their offices to create a trauma-informed practice, improve oral health care, and provide comfort and support to their patients.

Based on that, the collaborative created a packet of materials that includes an overview of ACEs and its connection to oral health, as well as an explanation on trauma-informed care. It also provides oral health-specific strategies and shares community resources related to trauma. The collaborative is now working to disseminate the educational materials more widely.
