  • Investigate individual and contextual preferences associated with adherence and maintenance of behaviors associated with oral health (diet and oral hygiene) through a Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE)
  • Measure the effect of retaining hygiene and diet guidance on pairs who did not submit the calendar and on those who submitted the calendar.
