Prevention of oral frail
"Deterioration of small mouth function" with aging is called "oral flail" (oral = mouth, flail = decline), and if left untreated, the risk of whole body decline and nursing care increases.
It is very important to notice oral frail as soon as possible and to respond appropriately to oral care and regular consultations.

Prevention of periodontal disease
Periodontal disease is a disease in which plaque (a mass of bacteria) causes inflammation and destroys periodontal tissues such as gums and bones supporting teeth, and is the biggest cause of adult loss of teeth.
It is said that it affects not only dental and oral health but also general health. Take care of your daily oral care and have a regular health check-up (medical checkup) at a dental clinic.
