Summary

The aim of the study is to test a brief, peer-led group-based oral health educational intervention - called the "Oral Health Recovery Group" - designed for individuals with psychiatric disabilities.

Detailed description

Participants at each site will obtain either: a) a Peer-led Oral Health Recovery educational group, representing the primary intervention; or b) viewing of an educational video about oral health, representing the comparison intervention. After participating in either condition, an onsite Peer staff member will offer to help the participant make a dentist appointment. They will follow up with the participant as needed for a two-month period to help arrange dental care and follow up on any dental self-care goals established by the participant, such as purchasing toothpaste with fluoride.
