This federal Project Grant award of $322,000.00 from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research (CFDA 93.121) program supports a research project titled "Improving the Design and Implementation of School-Based Oral Health Programs Using Secondary Data Analysis". The key objectives of the project are to: 1) Explore the longitudinal caries arrest capabilities of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) applied in a school-based setting, 2) Estimate the surface-level risks of dental caries following SDF treatment, and 3) Compare the total treatment time required for SDF versus dental sealants and atraumatic restorations in a school-based model. The project will leverage secondary analysis of data from the previously conducted CariesAway study, which demonstrated the effectiveness of SDF applied by school nurses for caries prevention and control in underserved children. The research team, comprised of an epidemiologist/education researcher and a public health dentist, aims to generate insights that will support the wider implementation of SDF in school-based caries prevention programs, especially in resource-constrained areas.
