简要总结
In the current study, MOST approach is proposed, to engineer an oral health behavior modification intervention, to increase the engagement of mothers in brushing their pre-school children's teeth.
详细描述
The first phase of this study will be the preparation phase. This will comprise the development of a conceptual framework and conducting a feasibility pilot study consisting of three intervention components: Motivational interviewing (MI), Oral health promotion messages (OHPm), and Storytelling (ST). The second phase of the study is the optimization phase which constitutes a factorial trial of the three selected intervention components (MI, OHPm and ST). Each component will be set at two levels: yes (the intervention is applied) vs no (the intervention is not applied).

结局指标
主要结局
Change in the plaque index scores of participating children
时间窗: at baseline, 3 and 6 months
Measured by the Plaque index of Silness and Loe. Lower plaque scores indicate better oral hygiene
Change in children's frequency of toothbrushing and use of fluoridated toothpaste
时间窗: at baseline, 3 and 6 months
Using the World Health Organization questionnaire. Highrr tooth brushing frequency indicates better oral hygiene
