“…Given the relationship between dysphagia and oral health (Table 1), it is believed that dentists, dental hygienists, and dental nurses play an essential role in dysphagia diagnosis and management. They work together as a team, while dentists are responsible for dental treatments, dental hygienists provide oral care and play an important role in long term management of dental care at home [35]. In this view, some diagnostic tools are made for dental professionals to facilitate the identification of dysphagia.…”

Dysphagia is a term that is used for the difficulty in moving liquid/food from mouth to the stomach. Dysphagia is very common in elders, which makes them susceptible to malnutrition, infection, institutionalization, and death. Consequently, it is categorized as a geriatric syndrome. Therefore, multidisciplinary teams need to work together to determine the correct etiology and implement an appropriate care plan. Oral care is crucial in managing dysphagia and dental hygienists and dentists serve as the key members. In some regions, the roles of dental professionals are not fully understood. Hence, the aim of this article is to review oral problems that are prevalent in older people and their relationship to dysphagia as well as the roles of dental professionals in dysphagia diagnosis and management.

“…In particular, as shown in models 3 and 4 of Table 2, despite the adjustment for the covariates of oral health behavior, systemic diseases, and demographic factors, the prevalence of periodontitis increased when the number of prostheses increased in the molar and anterior teeth. Most people with periodontal disease who have prostheses have insufficient self-care for their oral health, therefore, professional oral health management is essential for the progression and prevention of periodontal disease [31][32][33][34].…”

Although the presence of prosthetic restorations has been associated with plaque accumulation, gingivitis, and periodontitis, there is a lack of large epidemiological investigations providing evidence on the association of prosthetic crowns with periodontitis. This study aimed to analyze the association between the number of prosthetic crowns and the presence of periodontitis. This study was based on the Seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016–2018). A total of 12,689 participants over the age of 19 years were surveyed. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the association between the number of prosthetic crowns and periodontitis after adjusting for potential confounders, including demographic variables, socio-economic characteristics, oral health-related variables, and oral and systemic clinical variables. The odds ratio of periodontitis showed statistically significant differences in the anterior and posterior regions, and the prevalence of periodontal disease increased as the number of crown prostheses increased. Participants with 6–10 and 11 prosthetic crowns had 1.24 and 1.28 times higher prevalence of periodontitis, respectively, than patients with no prosthetic crown. The results of this study show that the number of prosthetic crowns present in adults is related to the prevalence of periodontitis.

“…In particular, as shown in models 3 and 4 of Table 2, despite the adjustment for the covariates of oral health behavior, systemic diseases, and demographic factors, the prevalence of periodontitis increased when number of prosthesis increased in the molar and anterior teeth. Increased periodontal disease indicates that self-oral care is not su cient, and professional oral care is required to prevent the initiation and progression of periodontal disease associated with increased number of prostheses [27][28][29][30].…”

BackgroundAlthough the presence of prosthetic restorations has been associated with plaque accumulation, gingivitis, and periodontitis, there is a lack of large epidemiological investigations providing credible evidence on the association of prosthetic crowns with periodontitis. The purpose of the study was to analyze the association between the number of prosthetic crowns and the presence of periodontitis.MethodsThis study was based on the Seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016-2018). A total of 12,689 participants over the age of 19 years were surveyed. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the association between the number of prosthetic crowns and periodontitis after adjusting for potential confounders, including demographic variables, socio-economic characteristics, oral health-related variables, and oral and systemic clinical variables. ResultsThe odds ratio of periodontitis showed statistically significant differences in the anterior and posterior regions, and the prevalence of periodontal disease increased as the number of crown prostheses increased. Participants with 6–10 and 11 prosthetic crowns had 1.24 and 1.28 times higher prevalence of periodontitis, respectively, than patients with no prosthetic crown.ConclusionsThe results of this study show that the number of prosthetic crowns present in adults is related to the prevalence of periodontitis.
