Promoting Oral Health Among Tobacco Quitline Callers
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Usual Care Control and Enhanced Intervention for Oral Disease and Smoking. Completed, enrolled 718 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The current study will test the effectiveness of a multi-modal behavioral intervention (the Oral Health 4 Life program) targeted to smokers who are ready to quit smoking and seeking services through tobacco quitlines. The investigators hypothesize that, compared to people in the control arm, participants in the enhanced intervention will: 1. Be more likely to quit smoking as evidenced by 7 day point prevalent abstinence rates at 6 month follow-up \[primary outcome\] and at 2 month follow-up \[secondary outcome\]. 2. Be more likely to see a dental care professional in the past 6 months at 6 month follow-up \[primary outcome\]. 3. Exhibit more positive change in relevant oral health knowledge/beliefs and attitudes (e.g., self-efficacy, motivation) that could influence future behavior change.
