Funded Activity Summary

The relationship between oral health literacy and positive oral health literacy-related outcomes, both of which are low among the Indigenous Australian population, is established. This study seeks to determine if implementation of a functional, context-specific oral health literacy intervention leads to improved oral health literacy-related outcomes among rural-dwelling Indigenous adults. There may be benefit in applying this model to other areas of Indigenous health research.
