We hypothesized that community-dwelling older adults with impaired swallowing functions have a higher risk of social isolation than individuals without function. The aim this study was to identify the association dysphagia in home care patients using daily interaction frequency and laughter as indicators interaction. One hundred ninety patients, aged ≥65 years, were included cross-sectional questionnaire survey. patients' basic information, level required, background percentage public health...
With the global rise in aging population, relationship between oral function and risk of long-term care is attracting attention. One method for subjective assessment masticatory use a food acceptance questionnaire. Although it hypothesized that objective functions such as tongue pressure swallowing are associated with performance, this has yet to be investigated. The aim study elucidate association overall performance using Patients aged ≥ 65 years were recruited from an outpatient dental...
The older adult population in Japan is expected to increase. Therefore, long-term care and frailty prevention are important. However, the relationship between masticatory performance, nutritional intake, remains unclear. This cross-sectional study aimed examine energy, protein, vitamin D intake its association with performance adults. Patients January 2022 2023 were recruited divided into robust frail groups. Masticatory nutrition, frailty, other data, such as age sex, evaluated through...
The type of denture adhesive, cream or home-liner, chosen by regular adhesive users and oral conditions contributing to this selection require elucidation. factors associated with were investigated through a face-to-face survey on conditions. Age, sex, moisture, masticatory performance, retention stability the removable denture, ridge shape, mucosal thickness, duration use examined in home-liner-type who did not regularly visit dentist. Univariate analysis multivariate analyses performed....
Purpose: Color-changeable chewing gums are used to evaluate masticatory performance, as measured by a colorimeter or visually based on color scale. Although anyone can use scale, the evaluation accuracy depends evaluator. We develop an application that determine degree of change in gum using smartphone images, making accurate and easy measure.
Differences in the effects of cream-type denture adhesives and home liners remain unclear.
<title>Abstract</title> Background With a globally aging population, the relationship between oral function and risk of long-term care is attracting attention. One method for subjective assessment use questionnaire on number foods suitable intake. Although it possible that objective functions, such as tongue pressure maximum occlusal force, are associated with intake, this has yet to be investigated. This study aimed clarify association overall Methods Patients aged 65 years or older were...
