5 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of the addition of hands on training by a pediatric dentist on the pediatric residents skills, confidence, opinions and practice related to preventive oral health.
This Phase I randomized pilot trial will assess the efficacy of a fixed incentive payment program and drawing incentive payment program versus a control program to promote early childhood caries (ECC) preventive health behaviors (i.e., toothbrushing performance and dental visit attendance) for young children of predominantly Latino parents/caregivers enrolled in/waitlisted for Early Head Start (EHS) home visit programs.
This Phase II stratified randomized prevention trial will assess the efficacy of a behavioral economic theory-based financial incentive drawing program versus a control regimen to promote early childhood caries (ECC) preventive health behaviors (toothbrushing performance) for young children of predominantly Latino parents/caregivers in Early Head Start (EHS) and day care center programs.
The purpose of this research intervention is to assess the oral health status and periodontal health of patients with diabetes hospitalized on a general medicine service, and to assess the effect of providing dental prophylaxis and motivational interviewing to patient health-seeking behaviors and provider attitudes towards oral health, as well as on patient health outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether giving brief motivational interviewing counseling during the prenatal and/or postnatal period(s) will increase utilization of preventive dental care and improve the oral health of rural, low-income pregnant and postpartum women and their children, and to increase the number of home oral health practices taken by these women to prevent caries in their young children.
