Surveys of independent dental practitioners and health maintenance organization (HMO) dentists and their adult male patients in Oregon found that cessation information and advice was being given to tobacco-using patients, especially smokeless tobacco users, and that the tobacco users surveyed expressed interest in obtaining help to quit.
