COMMISSIONING CONTACT'S COMMENTS
The Health Promotion Agency (HPA) commission was managed by Dr Karen McBride-Henry (Principal Researcher), Dr Judy Li (Senior Researcher), and Sarah Dallas (Researcher). This project is part of HPA's work to support the Ministry of Health with the formative development of the Child Oral Health Promotion Initiative to improve oral health preventive behaviours and practices among preschool children.
The key aim of this new initiative is that families and whnau enjoy the benefits of improved oral health for themselves and their children through regular tooth brushing and early enrolment with, and routine attendance at, Community Oral Health Services.
This report provides the topline findings from the formative research with parents and caregivers. More in-depth analyses will be undertaken and disseminated by HPA's Research and Evaluation team. Along with this project, HPA has also conducted a review of current evidence and a resource stocktake, and talked to stakeholders on their experience, opinions, insights and resources on oral health promotion. Findings from these studies are also available from the HPA website ().
The exploratory work HPA has undertaken will inform the development of the Child Oral Health Promotion Initiative and any future messaging and promotions.
