This $306,618 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.121) will support the development of a video-based microskills training platform called "SkillFlix for Dental Professionals." The goal is to improve dental professionals' ability to manage problem behaviors in pediatric patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Key activities for this Phase I project include: 1) establishing the SkillFlix education platform, 2) developing 20 microskills training videos on behavioral management strategies such as positive/negative reinforcement and tolerance training, and 3) conducting a pilot study to assess the platform's effectiveness in changing dental professionals' knowledge, confidence, and use of these techniques when working with IDD pediatric patients. This work aims to address gaps in behavioral management training for dental providers and increase access to quality dental care for children with IDD.
