Study Summary

The purpose of this implementation science study is to determine whether Deliberative Loops are effective in increasing providers' adherence to the non-cavitated caries component of the American Dental Association's pit-and-fissure sealant evidence-based clinical practice guideline. The investigators use a stepped wedge design to randomly assign dental clinics to the Deliberative Loop intervention. In a Deliberative Loop, stakeholders receive background information, participate in a facilitated discussion, and share their views with leadership. The Deliberative Loop intervention is designed to help stakeholders form informed opinions; in this study, stakeholders will be forming informed opinions about the implementation interventions they think will increase their clinic's adherence to the guideline. The investigators hypothesize that compared with the pre-intervention period, following the intervention, providers will place or treatment plan sealants for significantly more occlusal non-cavitated carious lesions.
