Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The physical and mental conditions and social environment of the elderly receiving nursing care are diverse, and as a result, it is often difficult to provide adequate dental treatment for physical or socio-economic reasons. Therefore, order-made dental treatment according to the patient's general condition and living conditions should be considered. The aim of this study is to clarify what kind of dental intervention is effective for elderly people who receiving nursing care. As a result, it was confirmed that the majority of elderly people receiving nursing care had a decrease in oral function. Due to the influence of the Covit-19 infection, follow-up surveys could not be conducted, so verification of effective treatment plans for oral health could not be achieved, but important data that could be the basis for future study were obtained.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
近年,要介護高齢者への歯科訪問診療が盛んに行われており,ニーズは非常に高い.しかしながら、要介護高齢者の治療方針の立案には効果の予測が必要であるが,現状はニーズに応じることにとどまる場合が多い.また研究においても、観察研究はみられるが,歯科治療の有無やその治療内容を検討した介入研究はほとんどない.本研究では、実際に適応した歯科治療録も収集し、経時的な口腔機能評価を行う点で学術的意義ならびに社会的意義は非常に大きい。本研究で蓄積したデータを基盤とし、今後、どの様な患者にどの様な歯科治療と管理が有効であるかの検証に寄与すると考えられる。
