Effect of planning interventions on parent supervised oral health behaviors in primary school-age children: a randomized controlled trial.

Objective: To compare the effect of planning interventions on self-reported changes in parents supervised oral health-related behaviors (OHRBs) and associated clinical oral health parameters for primary school-age children.

Method And Materials: In total, 110 parent-child pairs (children aged 3 to 8 years) were randomly assigned to either of the two groups. In the "action planning" group, parent participants of the pair were asked to make an "action plan" using the "how, when, where" format for their child OHRBs.
