Oral Filil Prevention
"alteration of trivial mouth function" with aging is called "oral flail" (oral = mouth, frail = weakening). If left unchecked, the risk of general body decline and requiring nursing care increases.
It is very important to be aware of oral frail early and to take appropriate oral care and regular consultations.

Periodontal disease prevention
Periodontal disease is a disease in which inflammation is caused by plaques (a mass of bacteria) and destroys periodontal tissues such as the gums and bones that support the teeth, and is the biggest cause of adult tooth loss.
It is said that it affects not only dental and oral health problems but also general health. Keep in mind your daily oral care and have a health check-up (medical checkup) at a dental clinic.
