Telehealth Intervention (THI)

The THI is a 6-month intervention. On a monthly basis, the survivor will be queried via telehealth (zoom or smart phone) oral and health related symptoms by nurse practitioner or navigator. Based on the initial imaging and the monthly assessments, the patients will be provided with tools and instructions for oral health maintenance which may consist of mucositis management and/or diet and lifestyle counseling. All participants will be provided a Resource directory that is to be used to identify a dentist that is best suited for him/her. Post intervention, follow-up assessments will be conducted at 6-, 9- and 12-months post randomization.
