Machine-translated · View original
The lab studies oral health as part of overall health, focusing on prevention and management.

AboutAbout the lab
Supporting healthy daily living through oral health.
The Preventive Dentistry Lab studies issues in oral health and dental care for individuals and communities, placing oral health at the center of overall health.
The lab considers oral health to be more than the absence of disease: it is a state in which a person can eat, speak, and smile without difficulty.
Preventive dentistry applies all levels of preventive medicine, from primary to tertiary prevention, to the oral cavity, and it provides a basic mindset for anyone involved in oral health and dental care.
The lab is in charge of the Department of Oral Supportive Care at Tohoku University Hospital, where its research centers on perioperative oral management for patients undergoing treatment in other medical departments.
