An inductive thematic analysis was conducted using the Conceptual Framework for Child Flourishing in Canada. Five themes emerged: family oral health practices, parental perspectives on the oral health needs of AIC, experiences accessing dental care, the influence of migration on oral health, and parents\u2019 strengths and recommendations. Socio-economic factors, migration experiences, and parental knowledge played strong roles in shaping AIC's oral health.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Generally, as supported by literature, the oral health of immigrant families, particularly children, declines as their stay in the host country progresses, but this small study suggests otherwise. Several families reported improved practices after settling in Saskatchewan. However, dental service utilization remained low due to cost, limited perceived need, and unfamiliarity with benefits such as the Canadian Dental Care Plan. Participants emphasized the need for increased oral health literacy and system navigation support. Findings highlight the importance of targeted oral health promotion through parental education, community involvement, and school or faith-based initiatives to strengthen oral health outcomes for AIC.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/08445621261496008","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,21]],"date-time":"2026-10-21T14:05:46Z","timestamp":1792591546000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Focus on the Oral Health of the African Child Immigrant in Canada: A Nursing Perspective"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-0021-0436","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lucy","family":"Mensah","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Saskatchewan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7045-8883","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sithokozile","family":"Maposa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Saskatchewan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3123-7409","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marcella","family":"Ogenchuk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Saskatchewan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/biomed3040037"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_1","unstructured":"African Trails.
