Brief Summary

This application, BeReady2Smile, will promote dental health behavioral parenting strategies among parents by incorporating a behavioral program for their children. Parents use a multimedia coordinated oral health prevention intervention program to promote dental health targeted at parents of young children attending parenting education classes and families receiving home visiting services through Head Start. Once developed, BeReady2Smile will be field tested for usability and usefulness with a group of parents of young children. Parents will rate the level of support needed, confidence in the system, and ease of use at each stage in the development, initiation, and maintenance of the system.
