===2021: [https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jdd.12788 Nicotine-related misperceptions among faculty and students at a Midwestern dental school]=== | |||
*The response rate for faculty was 55.1% and that for students was 37.5%. The majority of faculty and students “agreed” or “strongly agreed” that nicotine causes cancer, birth defects, cardiovascular disease, oral inflammation, and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. | |||
*Dental school faculty and students linked the risks of smoking tobacco to nicotine. Based on the results of this study, we feel our institution's curriculum should consider including information specific to nicotine in addition to tobacco in general. | |||
===2017: [https://www.ijdr.in/article.asp?issn=0970-9290;year=2017;volume=28;issue=6;spage=629;epage=636;aulast=Shah Knowledge, attitude and practices of institution-based dentists toward nicotine replacement therapy]=== | |||
*Having the advantage of working in an academic environment, the postgraduate students and members of faculty lack a detailed knowledge about NRT restricting them to practice it whenever required though they report a strong positive attitude toward this pharmacotherapy. Hence, there is a strong need for implementation of tobacco control policy in India, making repeated training on tobacco cessation counseling giving importance to NRT, not only to students but also to all the faculty members of all the dental institutions of this country where tobacco-related problems are highly prevalent. | |||
