Brief Title
Oral Pathology Asynchronous Telementoring Pilot Study
Official Title
Oral Pathology Asynchronous Telementoring Pilot Study
Brief Summary
The purpose of the proposed research project is to evaluate and enhance the feasibility and acceptability of integrating a tele-mentoring component into the identification of oral lesions at the 6 dental clinics of Family Health Centers at NYU Langone (FHC), a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in Brooklyn, NY.
Detailed Description
The tele-mentoring intervention involves training dental faculty members and residents to use intraoral cameras to take photographs of oral lesions and place them in the Dentrix electronic health record (EHR), along with descriptions of the lesions. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study will evaluate and enhance the feasibility and acceptability of integrating a tele-mentoring component into the identification of oral lesions at the 6 FHC dental clinics.
