PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I.To describe the baseline knowledge and access to dental care of underinsured/uninsured head and neck cancer patients treated with radiation at University California of San Francisco (UCSF) and Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center (ZSFG).
II.To pilot and characterize the feasibility and outcomes of an in-clinic fluoride varnish dental treatment paired with routine cancer surveillance for post-radiation head and neck cancer patients who do not have reliable access to dental care
III.To develop readily accessible patient educational material for dental care after radiation treatment for HNC.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Explore barriers and facilitators to adapting an integrated preventative fluoride intervention into clinical care for HNC patients through qualitative interviews.
II. Co-design patient advocacy materials and a clinician implementation toolkit to provide a framework for adopting this intervention diverse community-based settings
