Most (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200933, 75%) indicated they rarely\/never check or discuss dental health. Of those who did, most reported lacking skills to inspect teeth and discuss dental health. Frequently reported barriers were lack of skills, training, knowledge, and time. Most respondents (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200930, 68%) indicated they rarely\/never recommend patients to see the dentist. The most frequently reported barrier to referrals was not considering it part of their role (43%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Closer working relations between CF units and dental teams may remove barriers that prevent non\u2010dental clinicians from supporting patients with CF maintain oral health. Better integration of dental care within the MDT through improved professional training, increased referral practices, and availability of digital resources may help to improve dental care for all children, including children and adolescents with CF.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ppul.26395","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,14]],"date-time":"2023-04-14T12:29:28Z","timestamp":1681475368000},"page":"1746-1752","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Oral health and cystic fibrosis in pediatrics: A survey of health professionals"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"58","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5063-1244","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Delia","family":"Chin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Inflammatory Origins Murdoch Children's Research Institute Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Melbourne Dental School University of Melbourne Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Department of Dentistry Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lochana","family":"Ramalingam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Melbourne Dental School University of Melbourne Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Department of Dentistry Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Facial Sciences Murdoch Children's Research Institute Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4680-2338","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joanne","family":"Harrison","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Respiratory and Sleep Medicine Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Department of Paediatrics University of Melbourne Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Respiratory Diseases Murdoch Children's Research Institute Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5950-3978","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mihiri","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inflammatory Origins Murdoch Children's Research Institute Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Melbourne Dental School University of Melbourne Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Department of Dentistry Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Department of Paediatrics University of Melbourne Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF03320828"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrdp.2017.30"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0031-3955(16)38194-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/denu.2017.44.2.100"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1472-6831-15-S1-S9"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","volume-title":"Australia's Health 2016","author":"Australian Institute of Health and Welfare","year":"2016"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(02)11602-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1099-0496(199910)28:4<242::AID-PPUL2>3.0.CO;2-W"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ipd.12042"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcf.2018.11.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcf.2018.06.009"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4317\/medoral.22756"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1601-0825.2007.01410a.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.00368-15"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcf.2014.04.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.prrv.2020.05.002"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2005-0390"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_19_1","volume-title":"2018 Annual Data Report","author":"Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Patient Registry","year":"2019"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.318.7175.58a"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_21_1","unstructured":"Clinical Practice Guidelines for Cystic Fibrosis Committee.
