Study Summary
Dental caries is the most common chronic disease of childhood and is increasing in prevalence in children 2-5 years old. Racial and ethnic minority groups as well as economically disadvantaged individuals are affected the most by this health outcome. This study will test if a community-based multimodal intervention will reduce 2-year incidence of early childhood caries (ECC) in children aged 0-5 living in public housing developments. The intervention combines the components of motivational interviewing (counseling) delivered by dental health advocates, fluoride varnish application, oral health assessment and referral. The investigators hypothesize that the multimodal intervention with motivational interviewing will reduce ECC behavioral risk factors thereby leading to a reduction of ECC incidence when compared to fluoride varnish application, written oral health education materials and oral health assessment and referral.
