“…The strengths include external validity, a large sample size, and lower cost and shorter time period than interventional studies, including randomized, clinical trials [ 5 ]. Studies in the field of dentistry have been published using healthcare claims databases in the USA [ 6 ], Taiwan [ [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] ], and South Korea [ 14 ]. Because the healthcare claims database includes information about treatment, the majority of the studies examined the effects of dental treatment.…”

The National Database of Health Insurance Claims and Specific Health Checkups of Japan (NDB) is a database including health insurance claim and specific health checkup data. Observational studies using real-world big data attract attention because they have certain strengths, including external validity and a large sample size. This review focused on research using the dental formula of the NDB because the number of teeth is an important indicator of oral health. The number of teeth present calculated using the dental formula of periodontitis patients was similar to that from the Survey of Dental Diseases. In addition, the graphs of the presence rates of tooth types by 5-year age groups from the NDB were smoother and had less overlap than those from the Survey of Dental Diseases, and they could detect slight changes in the presence rate that reflected sugar consumption before and after World War II. Using the NDB, a low number of teeth was associated with high medical care expenditures, high risk of aspiration pneumonia, and high risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Although there are some restrictions on the use of the NDB, we hope that dental research using the NDB will be further promoted in the future.

“…Dental scaling (DS), meaning deep tooth cleaning with removal of dental plaque and calculus, was associated with a decreased risk for stroke, irrespective of the presence of periodontitis or not [ 9 – 11 ]. Patients with periodontitis are more at risk for pyogenic liver abscess than controls, particularly when they have no DS [ 20 ]. DS was significantly associated with lower risks of progression and mortality to end-stage renal disease in patients with chronic kidney disease [ 21 ].…”

Background Previous observational studies have shown that people with dental scaling (DS) had decreased risk of stroke. However, limited information is available on the association between DS and poststroke outcomes. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of regular DS on the complications and mortality after stroke. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 49,547 hospitalized stroke patients who received regular DS using 2010–2017 claims data of Taiwan’s National Health Insurance. Using a propensity-score matching procedure, we selected 49,547 women without DS for comparison. Multiple logistic regressions were used to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of poststroke complications and in-hospital mortality associated with regular DS. Results Stroke patients with regular DS had significantly lower risks of poststroke pneumonia (OR 0.58, 95% CI 0.54–0.63), septicemia (OR 0.58, 95% CI 0.54–0.63), urinary tract infection (OR 0.68, 95% CI 0.66–0.71), intensive care (OR 0.81, 95% CI 0.78–0.84), and in-hospital mortality (OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.62–0.71) compared with non-DS stroke patients. Stroke patients with regular DS also had shorter hospital stays (p < 0.0001) and less medical expenditures (p < 0.0001) during stroke admission than the control group. Lower rates of poststroke adverse events in patients with regular DS were noted in both sexes, all age groups, and people with various types of stroke. Conclusion Stroke patients with regular DS showed fewer complications and lower mortality compared with patients had no DS. These findings suggest the urgent need to promote regular DS for this susceptible population of stroke patients.
