| Research Abstract |
While attempts were made to establish the electrical stimulation methods to induce the reactive muscle activity for the patients with muscle dysfunction in orofacial regions by systemic disease such as a stroke, it was difficult to achieve it. Therefore, we next conceived to evaluate the degree of burden for care-givers to nursing to the persons requiring care with masticatory disturbance. By carrying out this investigation, we thought that we could appeal the importance of the rehabilitation of oral function and could indirectly lead to the development of novel rehabilitation methods. The results of the investigation to evaluate the degree of burden for the care-givers to persons requiring care suggested that time necessary to feeding and oral care, and the number of remaining teeth significantly associated with the degree of burden.
