Summary:

Recently, concerns have been voiced that medications to treat opioid use disorder (OUD) may contribute to dental problems, including cavities and tooth loss. These concerns may contribute to barriers preventing use of these medications. A better understanding of the effects of these medications on oral complications is critical. This project will use national databases to link dental, medical, and pharmacy claims data for Medicaid- or commercially-insured new users of various medications for OUD to determine and compare oral health outcomes. The project will also examine the perspectives and experiences of people with OUD on oral health.

Summary:

Drug checking services provide individuals who use drugs with information about the true contents of their purchases, and thus may help prevent overdoses. However, current technologies are either costly, technically complex, and non-portable or subject to false signals and restricted in their detection capabilities. This project will continue development of a new, simple-to-use, point-of-care analytical technology (DoseCheck) that can rapidly detect established drug threats in a sample and recognize newly emerging drugs. The project will also attempt to adapt DoseCheck to provide rapid results in emergency overdose situations and improve the analytical capabilities of medical examiners in under-resourced jurisdictions.
