Assessment	Quantifying attributable risk across common (shared) risk factors between periodontal disease and other non-communicable diseases. Building a periodontal surveillance system for monitoring common risk factors and indicators which is universal and valid. Using data science and technology to help develop a periodontal disease risk assessment tool based on the common risk factor approach ranging from population-based screenings to integrated medical-dental health care.
Policy Development	Educating oral health care providers that periodontal disease prevention and control requires both an individual approach and a public health approach to effect change and improve health. Developing policy strategies for a public health approach that focuses on the common risk factor approach. Addressing the social determinants of health through a more comprehensive systems approach.
Assurance	Implementing periodontal disease identification and prevention strategies that supports the primary health care team (which should also include oral health professionals). Integrating health models with a more holistic approach considering modifiable risk factors that are shared with non-communicable diseases, such as tobacco use, vaping, alcohol consumption, elevated blood pressure and cholesterol, stress, and low health literacy. Evaluating effectiveness of CFRA in reducing and controlling periodontal disease at the population level.
