Wright R, et al. – Purpose of this investigation was to determine attitudes, behaviors, future intentions and perceived barriers of pediatric dentists regarding efforts to prevent childhood obesity and decrease children's consumption of sugar–sweetened beverages (SSBs). More pediatric dentists declared they offer childhood obesity interventions than in previous surveys reporting 6 percent, but respondents recommended that a child's weight is seen as a medical rather than dental issue. In addition, they provide interventions related to consumption of SSBs, perceiving the issue as integral to their care of children.
