Blood Pressure Screening in Dental Offices North Dakota Health and Human Services' (HHS) Oral Health Program is focused on improving the oral health of all North Dakotans through prevention and education. Because oral health and overall health are connected, the program works to increase coordination between oral health providers and medical providers.
Oral health providers can help by working with medical providers on strategies to prevent cardiovascular diseases. CDC funding has allowed the state to implement a blood pressure pilot project to improve the oral and cardiovascular health of North Dakotans. For the blood pressure pilot project, HHS partnered with dental providers to provide blood pressure screenings for adult patients and to make bidirectional referrals if needed.
Bidirectional referrals are a process in which a dental provider refers a patient for services when high blood pressure is identified and receives feedback from the medical provider on that referral. Dental offices received training on best practices for screening patients’ blood pressure.
Participating dental offices: provided over 18,614 screenings, detected high blood pressure in 2,699 people, made 344 referrals to medical practices, and 164 people received follow-up on their referral. The Effects of High Blood Pressure High blood pressure, or hypertension, is when the force of blood flowing through a person’s blood vessels is too high.

What is a Normal Blood Pressure? There are typically no symptoms when a person has high blood pressure, and many people do not know they have it. The only way to find out if you have high blood pressure is to have your blood pressure measured.
A normal blood pressure is below 120/80 mm Hg. See the chart below on the different levels of hypertension.
