ABSTRACT
En este artículo se revisa el papel del dentista en la deshabituación tabáquica con especial énfasis en el consejo sanitario y en la intervención breve. Sin embargo, no parece necesario que el dentista conozca en profundidad los distintos tipos de tratamiento y los lleve a cabo en su consulta. Si bien, en la consulta dental parecen darse todas las condiciones necesarias para realizar el tratamiento del tabaquismo. Si se decide no tratar el tabaquismo de un paciente es recomendable que tras el obligatorio consejo sanitario se le dé al paciente algún tipo de folleto con información sobre cómo dejar de fumar para que ayudar al paciente hasta éste acuda a una Unidad de Tabaquismo (AU)
This paper reviews on the role of dentists in smoking cessation, focusing in counselling and short intervention. It does not seem to be necessary for the dentist to be knowdegeable on the different treatments and to provide them at his/her practice, although the dental office seems to meet all requirements to undertake effective tobacco-cessation therapies. In case the dentist decides not to treat tobacco addiction, adequate advice should be provided and the patient offered leaflets on how to quit smoking in order to help him/her until seen at a tobacco control unit (AU)
