Developed by CareQuest Institute for Oral Health, MORE Care™ provides a framework, tools, and guidance for medical providers to integrate oral health competencies and capabilities into the primary care practice and improve oral health within a community. MORE Care aims to decrease oral disease through:
Oral health risk assessment and screening in the primary care setting.
Discussion of oral health self-management goals like eating healthy snacks, and regular brushing with fluoride toothpaste.
Fluoride varnish applications.
Bi-directional referral communication between medical and dental providers.
Participating providers will receive financial rewards, allowing simulation of a value-based care model. Pilot begins August 2022.
