Summary

The purpose of the proposed research project is to evaluate and enhance the feasibility and acceptability of integrating a tele-mentoring component into the identification of oral lesions at the 6 dental clinics of Family Health Centers at NYU Langone (FHC), a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in Brooklyn, NY.

Detailed description

The tele-mentoring intervention involves training dental faculty members and residents to use intraoral cameras to take photographs of oral lesions and place them in the Dentrix electronic health record (EHR), along with descriptions of the lesions. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study will evaluate and enhance the feasibility and acceptability of integrating a tele-mentoring component into the identification of oral lesions at the 6 FHC dental clinics.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Imaging using intraoral cameras	The SOPROCARE is intended for clinical practice of general dentistry, as an aid in the diagnosis of pit and fissure caries, as an aid to highlight dental plaque and gingival inflammations and as intra-oral camera to visualize anatomical details that are invisible to the naked eye or with a mirror. In CARIO mode, the camera helps the dental practitioner to highlight carious warning on pits and fissures of the occlusal side of the teeth. In DAYLIGHT mode, the camera enables you to visualize anatomical details invisible to the naked eye or with a mirror. In PERIO mode, the camera helps the dental practitioner to see the presence of dental plaque but also to highlight gingival inflammations . This mode offers to the dentist and/or hygienist a tool for an improved communication, motivation and education of his/her patients, who will then become aware of their oral health condition.
