This is a research study that wants to understand the real-world challenges people living with HIV face when trying to access dental care and learn about oral cancer prevention. Researchers will gather people in small group discussions to hear directly about their experiences, barriers they've encountered, and what might help them get better oral health care.
People living with HIV may have higher risks for certain types of oral cancer, but many face obstacles to getting regular dental care and accurate health information. This study exists to identify what those barriers are and learn how to make prevention and care more accessible and welcoming for people from different backgrounds.

You would have one phone call to screen and enroll in the study, then attend one in-person or virtual focus group session lasting about 1.5 to 2 hours. During that session, you'll sit with a small group of people who share similar backgrounds and answer questions about your experiences with dental health, oral cancer prevention, and access to care. You'll also complete a short survey either on paper or over the phone.
