A lab that explores the oral health and function of older adults through clinical practice and epidemiology.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring older adults' oral health through practice and research.
The Gerodontology Lab studies how dental and oral health care should be provided for older adults.
Through health care practice that involves interprofessional collaboration, such as outpatient care and home-visit dental care, the lab explores the contribution that dental and oral health care can make to society in a super-aged society.
The lab also puts effort into epidemiological research that examines the relationship between dental and oral health and overall health and quality of life.
The lab is part of the Department of Rehabilitation Dentistry in the Graduate School of Dentistry.
