ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking to understand how certain social factors affect the oral health of Egyptian women. Researchers want to find out how things like income, education, living conditions, and social support can influence women’s dental health. By studying these factors, they hope to identify ways to improve oral health outcomes for women in Egypt.

To participate in this study, you need to be an Egyptian woman between the ages of 18 and 49 who visits a government healthcare unit. Unfortunately, women who have recently moved, those who are pregnant, or those with certain dental or mental health issues won’t be eligible. If you decide to join, you will help researchers gather important information that could lead to better care and support for women’s oral health in the future. The trial is not yet recruiting participants, so stay tuned for updates on when it will begin!
