BEhavioral EConomics for Oral Health iNnovation Pilot Trial

Influence of Financial Incentives on Oral Disease Management in Young Children: A Randomized Pilot Trial

NCT03862443•University of California, San Francisco

Summary

This Phase I randomized pilot trial will assess the efficacy of a fixed incentive payment program and drawing incentive payment program versus a control program to promote early childhood caries (ECC) preventive health behaviors (i.e., toothbrushing performance and dental visit attendance) for young children of predominantly Latino parents/caregivers enrolled in/waitlisted for Early Head Start (EHS) home visit programs.

Detailed Description

If both groups are acceptable and feasible, the reward group with toothbrushing outcomes at least 20% better than the other one (and the control) will be chosen for a future Phase II/III trial; if they are similar, the fixed monetary reward will be used because it is simpler to explain, monitor, and implement.
