| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we examined the impact of oral moisturizers to the dry mouth patients in terms of establishing the selection criteria of oral moisturizer. First, we examined the various aspects of gel and liquid oral moisturizer. From a point of view of material science, the viscosity of the gel moisturizers has increased by the transpiration. From a point of view of microbiology, antifungal effect of the gel moisturizers has not decrease with time. As a result of the sensory test, there was high correlation between taste and total score of gel moisturizers. However, the oral moisturizer, which shows excellent results in all evolution items, was not observed. As a result of the application of gel moisturizer with antifungal effect to the denture patients with dry mouth, subjective symptoms of dry mouth was improved, however, it was observed that there are no significant changes in the microbial flora.
