Oral frailty indicators to target major adverse health-related outcomes in older age: a systematic review

Vittorio Dibello et al.

Summary: Maintaining good oral health is crucial for accomplishing daily tasks in older age. A systematic review of 68 studies found that oral health deterioration, decline in oral motor skills, chewing, swallowing, and saliva disorders, and oral pain were associated with adverse health-related outcomes including mortality, physical frailty, functional disability, quality of life, hospitalization, and falls. The findings highlight the importance of assessing and preventing these oral health indicators for older adults.

Kotomi Sakai et al.

Summary: Studies have found associations between oral function, dysphagia, frailty, and sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults. These associations may be related to decreased tongue pressure and a higher prevalence of dysphagia among frailty patients.

Association of Oral Hypofunction with Frailty, Sarcopenia, and Mild Cognitive Impairment: A Cross-Sectional Study of Community-Dwelling Japanese Older Adults

Maya Nakamura et al.

Summary: In this study, it was found that there is a significant association between oral hypofunction and frailty, sarcopenia, and mild cognitive impairment. Frailty was associated with deterioration of swallowing function, mild cognitive impairment was associated with reduced occlusal force and decreased tongue pressure, while no independent association was found between sarcopenia and oral function.

Survey of oral hypofunction in older outpatients at a dental hospital

Wakana Onuki et al.

Summary: The study examined the state of oral hypofunction among outpatients at a university hospital, finding that 35.9% of patients were diagnosed with oral hypofunction. The diagnosis was significantly related to patient age, medical history, and chief complaint at presentation. Reduced occlusal force was strongly associated with the diagnosis of oral hypofunction.

Alice E. Kane et al.

Summary: Frailty can be viewed as a state of physiological decline that increases susceptibility to adverse health outcomes. Even though women have longer lifespans, they are found to be frailer than men. The factors responsible for this difference are not well understood yet.
