Abstract: Caregivers play an instrumental role in supporting the oral health of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDDs). This study investigates how caregiver well-being impacts caregiving practices through interviews and the FF-WEL survey, aiming to develop strategies that enhance both caregiver wellness and oral health outcomes for children with IDDs.
