Machine-translated · View original
A comprehensive dentistry lab that contributes to overall health through oral health.
AboutAbout the lab
Contributing to overall health through oral health.
The lab conducts dental clinical practice and research with the goal of contributing to the maintenance of overall health through oral health.
Its research covers the effects of oral care for perioperative patients, improving oral function to raise ADL in older adults, the causes of periodontal disease and periodontal bacteria, and regeneration of oral tissue.
As the General Dentistry department of Kyushu University Hospital, the lab also handles a wide range of common dental treatments and oral management of inpatients before and after surgery.
It also educates clinical trainee dentists right after graduation, and manages and runs the dentist clinical training program.
Key terms
- Perioperative period
- The whole period from before surgery, through surgery, to after surgery
- ADL
- Activities of daily living. The basic movements needed in daily life, such as eating and moving around
- Periodontal disease
- A disease of the tissues around the teeth. The balance between bacterial infection and the body's defenses is involved in its onset and progression
ResearchResearch themes
Research is based on holistic dental care and on dental approaches related to lifestyle-related diseases and systemic diseases. Themes include oral care for surgical patients, oral function in older adults, bacteria involved in periodontal and endodontic diseases, and regeneration of oral tissue.
*Illustrative imageFactors that regenerate oral tissue
As basic research aimed at regenerating oral tissue, the lab identifies factors that promote tissue development and regeneration and studies how they work.
*Illustrative imageEffects of oral care for perioperative patients
The lab examines the effects of oral function management for perioperative patients. Topics include the relationship between the oral condition of ICU patients and factors for poor prognosis, the effect of oral management on preventing postoperative infection in joint replacement surgery, and the relationship between oral function and nutritional status in esophageal cancer patients.
*Illustrative imageHematopoietic cell transplantation and oral bacteria
Through a retrospective study, the lab explores risk factors for infection by bacteria that normally live in the mouth (oral commensal bacteria) in hematopoietic cell transplantation.
*Illustrative imageImproving oral function in older adults
The lab studies how to improve oral function in order to raise ADL in older adults. It surveys sleep apnea in older patients visiting dental outpatient clinics, and examines dental approaches for patients with dementia in hospital dentistry.
