Research Abstract |
We conducted two cohort studies. The first one was comprised of Japanese dentists, who filled in a self-administered questionnaire about oral health and other factors. We examined associations between tooth loss and the risk of morbidity or mortality among 21,247 participants (mean age ± SD, 52.3 ± 12.2 years, women 8.0%) with the mean follow-up of 6.2 years. The risk was significantly increased among respondents with many teeth lost for total and pneumonia mortality and stroke and hip fracture incidence whereas no such a significant association was found for incidence of ischemic heart disease and cancer. In the second cohort study, we re-examined men and women in one city, who participated in the baseline survey (including dental examination) at 65 years old after a 6-year interval. Newly developed hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, etc.were identified. We will analyze the data including those collected before the study period of the present grant.
