Patient acceptance of HIV rapid testing in the dental care setting
Dental settings are untapped venues to identify patients with undiagnosed HIV who may otherwise lack testing opportunities. Perceived lack of patient acceptance has been a significant barrier limiting dentists' willingness to offer HIV testing. This study implemented rapid HIV testing in dental settings located in an HIV prevalent region to evaluate patient acceptance. Two South Florida community health centers implemented routine oral rapid HIV testing as part of clinical practice, followed by exit interviews with patients immediately after to determine patient acceptance. The binary primary outcome was patient's acceptance of the rapid HIV test. Multivariable logistic regression assessed associations between patient characteristics and acceptance. Overall acceptance by dental patients (N = 600) was 84.5%. Patients who were more likely to participate in other medical screenings in dental settings were more than twice as likely to accept the test compared to those who were neutral/less likely (OR: 2.373; 95% CI: 1.406-4.004). Study findings highlight the high patient acceptance of HIV testing in dental settings. Widespread implementation of such testing will require an expanded societal view of the traditional role of the dentist that will embrace the potentially valuable role of dentistry in preventive health screenings and population health.
