1. Specific OPC patient communication (COPC) tool to address OPCs among Black men. 2. Assess the COPC tool's ability to improve dental providers' communication with Black men. 3. Implement a pilot test of the culturally tailored OPC communication tool in community-based settings to assess perceptions, knowledge and experiences of Black men receiving oral cancer screenings

oral cancer communication tool
BehavioralThe overall goal is to determine if the OPC communication tool has potential to enhance Black-men's and dentists' comfort discussing oral and pharyngeal cancers in clinical-like settings. Each Aim builds upon activities from the previous Aim. Aim 1a and Aim1b activities will produce a culturally- aligned oral-pharyngeal cancer communication (COPC) tool that will be used in Aim 2. In Aim 2 activities, dental providers will receive training on the tool and practice utilization of the tool. The tool will be further revised using the additional feedback from Aim 2 activities. In Aim 3, the revised culturally- aligned COPC tool will be utilized in community-based settings. In this IRB amendment-modification, we are seeking approval for Phase III/ Aim 3 activities.
oral cancer communication
This communication tool will ideally help dentists communicate with their patients about oral cancer risk and treatment. The oral cancer screenings will occur in person. Participants will complete a pre-survey either on paper or online, engage with a dentist or dental student, then complete a post-survey
