Neck pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints. Evidence suggests that increased activities of neck and trunk muscles are one of the mechanisms related to neck pain. Jaw clenching and sitting posture may modulate the muscle activity in neck and trunk muscles during typing. The present study aimed to assess the effects of different postural positions and clenching conditions on neck and trunk muscle activities. Thirteen healthy adults (39.8 ± 5.0 years) performed computer typing tasks in four conditions (two postural positions [upright vs slouched] and two jaw clenching conditions [clenching vs non-clenching]). Integrated surface electromyography (iEMG) was measured in sternocleidomastoid (SCM), upper trapezius (uTP) and middle trapezius (mTP) muscles and compared between conditions. The Friedman and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests with Bonferroni's corrections were used to estimate the condition-specific differences in the iEMG data. The statistical significance level was set at 5%. In both postural positions, iEMGSCM was significantly greater under the jaw clenching than under the non-clenching condition (χ2 = 21.700, P <.01). Under both jaw clenching conditions, iEMGuTP was significantly greater in the slouched than in the upright postural position (χ2 = 23.182, P <.01). No significant differences in iEMGmTP were seen across conditions (χ2 = 5.018, P =.10). Sitting posture and jaw clenching appear to influence activities of different muscles.

Background: Although a food acceptance questionnaire is useful for subjective masticatory function assessments, its characteristics and limitations when applied to patients with removable dentures have been unclear. We therefore assessed the relationship between the subjective and objective masticatory function and explored whether or not a decreased masticatory function could be evaluated by food acceptance questionnaire. Methods: One hundred and nineteen patients >60 years old with removable partial and/or complete dentures participated. Food acceptance score (FAS) was calculated by using Sato's questionnaire with 20 food items. Masticatory performance (MP) was assessed by a visual scoring method using a test gummy jelly (UHA Mikakuto). Simple/multiple regression analyses were performed to explain the objective masticatory function. The cut-off value of FAS was determined to predict a decreased masticatory function by sensitivity, specificity and receiver operating characteristics curve. Results: No significant gender differences in MP or FAS were noted. Although both MP and FAS increased with the number of functional teeth, FAS was not significantly affected by age. The number of functional teeth, FAS and age had significant correlations with MP, with the number of functional teeth showing the strongest correlation. Multiple linear regression analyses identified the FAS as a significant explanatory variable for MP, and 70 was the optimal cut-off value for detecting a decreased masticatory function (MP score ≤ 2) in the diagnosis of ‘oral hypofunction’. Conclusions: Using FAS to assess the MP was deemed appropriate, and a score of 70 was the optimal cut-off value for detecting a decreased masticatory function.

This cross-sectional study aimed to demonstrate the association between physical frailty subdomains and oral frailty. This study involved community-dwelling older adults (aged ≥65 years). Physical frailty was assessed with the Japanese version of the Cardiovascular Health Study criteria. Oral frailty was defined as limitations in at least three of six domains. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the association between physical frailty risk and oral frailty. In addition, we examined the association between physical frailty subdomains (gait speed, grip strength, exhaustion, low physical activity, and weight loss) and oral frailty. A total of 380 participants were recruited for this study. Overall, 18% and 14% of the participants were at risk of physical frailty and had oral frailty, respectively. Physical frailty risk (odds ratio (OR) = 2.40, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.22–4.75, p = 0.012) was associated with oral frailty in multivariate analysis. In secondary analysis, among physical frailty subdomains, gait speed (OR = 0.85, 95% CI: 0.73–0.97, p = 0.019) was associated with oral frailty. The present findings suggest that physical frailty is closely related to oral frailty. Among physical frailty subdomains, decreased gait speed in particular is an important indicator related to the development of oral frailty.

Aim We speculated that low back pain, which is the most common ailment in older adults, is associated with frailty and/or sarcopenia and contributes to the progression of either condition. Our objective was to evaluate the relationship between low back pain, sarcopenia and frailty in rural Japanese community-dwelling older adults.Methods We recruited 730 participants aged >= 65 years who underwent a comprehensive health examination between November 2016 and December 2018. The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) was used to assess low back pain quantitatively, and scores were compared for the frail groups determined by the Japanese version of Cardiovascular Health Study, and the sarcopenia groups as determined by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019.Results Among 730 participants, the prevalence of low back pain was 57.8%. There were significant differences in the ODI scores between the robust, prefrail and frail groups (P < 0.001). In contrast, there were no significant differences in the ODI scores among the robust, low appendicular skeletal muscle and sarcopenia groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that the prevalence of low back pain and the ODI scores were significantly associated with frailty after adjustment for age, sex and body mass index (odds ratio 3.41, 95% confidence interval 1.39-8.39, P = 0.008, and odds ratio 1.06, 95% confidence interval 1.04-1.09, P < 0.001, respectively).Conclusions To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to show the close association between low back pain and frailty, and suggests that not only the decline in physical function but also neuropsychiatric factors, including chronic pain, constitute a vicious cycle of frailty in community-dwelling older adults.

It is often assumed that oral hypofunction is associated with social withdrawal in older adults because decreased motor function is related to decreased oral function. However, few studies have examined the relationship between social withdrawal in older adults and oral function. This longitudinal study aimed to clarify the relationship between changes in the level of social withdrawal and oral function in independent older adults. Participants were 427 older adults aged 65 years or older who took part in a self-administered questionnaire from 2016 to 2017 (baseline), and again two years later (follow-up). At baseline, 17 items related to oral function and confounding factors related to withdrawal, physical condition, physical function, and cognitive function were evaluated. A Cox proportional hazard model was used to examine the oral functions that negatively impact social withdrawal. The following factors were significantly associated with the worsening of social withdrawal: the number of remaining teeth, gingival condition, occlusal force, masticatory efficiency, and items related to swallowing and dry mouth. Older adults with cognitive issues who walk slowly and have a weak knee extension muscle were also significantly more likely to have oral frailty. Those who were found to have oral frailty at baseline were 1.8 times more likely to develop withdrawal compared to those with robust oral function. The results indicated that the worsening of withdrawal was associated with oral hypofunction at baseline. Since oral hypofunction was associated with the worsening of social withdrawal in older adults, it is important to maintain older adults' oral function.

BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia is prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The indices of physical function, such as grip power and gait speed, decreased according to the decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). METHODS: We examined the relationships between cystatin C-based GFR (eGFRcys), creatinine-based GFR (eGFRcre), their ratio (eGFRcys/eGFRcre) and sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults in Japan. This cross-sectional study included 302 men aged 73.9 ± 6.2 years and 647 women aged 72.9 ± 5.8 years from a rural area in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan. eGFRcys and eGFRcre were simultaneously measured, and sarcopenia based on the Asia Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) 2019 criteria was evaluated. RESULTS: eGFRcys and the eGFRcys/eGFRcre ratio were significantly correlated with grip power and gait speed (p < 0.001). The eGFRcys/eGFRcre ratio was also correlated with skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) (p < 0.01). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed eGFRcys and eGFRcys/eGFRcre ratio but not eGFRcre were associated with sarcopenia (p < 0.01). The presence of low eGFRcys (CKDcys) and low eGFRcys/eGFRcre ratio (< 1.0) but not that of low eGFRcre (CKDcre) were associated with sarcopenia (p < 0.01). In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, when the eGFRcys/eGFRcre ratio was added as a covariate to the basic model, it was significantly associated with sarcopenia in women (p < 0.05). Moreover, low eGFRcys/eGFRcre ratio (< 1.0) was associated with a higher risk of sarcopenia in men (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: In conclusion, CKDcys but not CKDcre is associated with sarcopenia. A lower eGFRcys/eGFRcre ratio may be a practical screening marker of sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults.

PURPOSE: This study investigated the impact of the renewal of a removable prosthesis on the masticatory function by subjective and objective measures and its variation among the types of occlusal support. METHODS: Seventy-eight patients who received newly fabricated removable denture patients participated in this study. For the objective assessment, masticatory performance was measured using test gummy jelly. For the subjective assessment, standardized questionnaires about food acceptability and the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) were used. Pre- and post-insertion assessments were performed for each subject. Subjects were divided into three groups according to their posterior occlusion: with posterior occlusion (w/PO), without posterior occlusion (w/o PO) and edentulous. Wilcoxon's signed rank test was used to compare the pre- and post-treatment measurements of each assessment. The analysis of covariance and a multiple comparison were used to assess the effect of new dentures and differences due to occlusal support. RESULTS: The masticatory performance, OHRQoL and food acceptability following prosthodontic treatment were significantly improved by new denture insertion. The masticatory performance among groups varied to a relative degree. The rate of masticatory performance improvement for edentulous subjects was twice that in w/PO subjects. The OHRQoL was significantly lower in the w/o PO and edentulous groups with old denture than patients w/PO. The food acceptability improved most markedly in the edentulous group. CONCLUSIONS: The improvement in the masticatory performance by new denture insertion varied among types of occlusal support. Re-establishing the occlusal support of edentulous patients may help restore their OHRQoL and improve food acceptability.

Masticatory performance of subjects from a general urban population was examined by measurement at baseline and again at follow-up, to clarify whether periodical utilization of dental services (PUDS) is effective in maintaining masticatory performance. Subjects comprised 1010 people (414 males, 596 females; mean age at baseline, 65.7 ± 7.8 years) who participated in the Suita study with dental checkups at both baseline and follow-up (mean follow-up, 5.2 ± 1.5 years). Number of functional teeth, occlusal support, periodontal status, masticatory performance, maximum bite force, and salivary flow rate were surveyed. Subjects were divided into a with-PUDS group (n = 430), who responded at both baseline and follow-up that they regularly utilized dental services, and a without-PUDS group (n = 580), who responded otherwise. To evaluate longitudinal changes in masticatory performance over the study period, the rate of masticatory performance change was calculated by dividing the difference in masticatory performance between follow-up and baseline by the masticatory performance at baseline. The relationship between the presence of PUDS and the rate of masticatory performance change was investigated by multiple linear regression analysis. Analysis was performed using a model with number of functional teeth as an independent variable (number of functional teeth model), and a model with occlusal support as an independent variable (occlusal support model). Multiple linear regression analysis identified PUDS as significantly associated with the rate of masticatory performance change in both the number of functional teeth model and the occlusal support model. PUDS is likely to prove effective in ameliorating reductions in masticatory performance over time.

PURPOSE: To measure masticatory performance (MP) in partially edentulous patients when wearing removable partial dentures (RPDs) versus when not wearing RPDs, and to identify factors that could enable clinical evaluations related to differences in MP. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study consisted of 87 partially edentulous patients (57 females, 30 males; mean age, 69.41 ± 8.85 years) categorized as Eichner classification B who habitually wore RPDs. MP was evaluated while wearing versus while not wearing RPDs using test gummy jellies. The participants were categorized into four groups by the presence of occlusal contacts in one to three of the molar and premolar regions (occlusal support), or in the anterior region only, according to the Eichner index (B1-B4). The participants were also categorized according to the jaw on which the RPDs were worn and the Kennedy classification, and evaluated in regard to changes in MP resulting from wearing RPDs. Additionally, the rate of change in MP (MP-rv) was calculated for each participant using MP when not wearing RPDs as a reference, and factors affecting MP-rv were evaluated using single or multiple regression analysis and the Kruskal-Wallis test with multiple comparisons. RESULTS: Significant increases in MP-rv were observed for all participants and for those with occlusal support in two (p = 0.006) and three regions (p = 0.019); however, no significant differences were observed when wearing and not wearing RPDs in participants with (p = 0.090) and those without occlusal support in one region (p = 0.474). With respect to the jaw on which the RPDs were worn, only maxillary or both maxillary/mandibular RPDs tended to have higher MP-rvs than did only mandibular jaws. The results of the multiple regression analysis showed that Kennedy Class I edentulous arches were a factor in increasing MP-rv (standard partial regression coefficient = 0.46, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: According to the results of this study, among various factors on the degree of improvement in masticatory performance by wearing RPDs, bilateral missing posterior teeth might be a predictor for achieving clinical improvement.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity of a dysphagia screening test (DST) in patients who have undergone resection for head and neck cancer (HNC). In addition, we examined whether or not combined effects of DSTs improve the detection accuracy of penetration/aspiration. METHODS: Thirty-six HNC patients were participated. The DST consisted of the repetitive saliva swallowing test (RSST), the water swallowing test (WST), the modified water swallowing test (MWST), the food test (FT), and tongue pressure. A videofluoroscopic swallowing study was conducted, and the penetration-aspiration scale was used for scoring. For statistical analyses, we used the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Furthermore, the accuracy of the determination of penetration/aspiration was evaluated by combining two or three DSTs. RESULTS: The penetration/aspiration could be predicted with moderate accuracy based on MWST and FT. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) values of the MWST and FT were 0.76 (p = 0.03) and 0.80 (p = 0.050), and the sensitivity/specificity was 0.9/0.61 (MWST) and 0.8/0.8 (FT), respectively. As a result of combining 2 or 3 DSTs, the combination of "MWST and FT" was the most accurate, with an AUC of 0.87 (p = 0.02). The combination of three tests had lower accuracy than the combination of two tests. CONCLUSION: Based on our results, it is recommended that MWST or FT be used when only one type of DST is performed. In addition, the combination of two DSTs may detect aspiration patients more accurately than one alone.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the relationship between oral hygiene/stomatognathic function and residual intraoral medication in older adults and to identify the oral factors associated with residual oral medication. METHODS: The study included 309 older adults (77 men, 232 women, mean age: 74.1 ± 7.4 years) who were prescribed medications at regular intervals. The following survey items were assessed: overall physical condition, intraoral condition and oral function. Participants prescribed oral medication were classified into groups with and without residual medication in the oral cavity. Statistical analysis was performed using univariate analysis for each of the factors contributing to the presence of residual medication. RESULTS: Only 1.9% of all patients had residual medication, which suggests that older adults in this survey had a low risk of residual intraoral medication. However, greater attention should be given to residual intraoral medication in older adults receiving long-term care. Powdered-form oral medications were more likely to remain in the oral cavity. Older adults with residual medication had a tendency to have less occlusal support, poor tongue hygiene and poor tongue movement. Oral function, particularly functions that are closely related to swallowing, was significantly lower in the residual intraoral medication group when compared to those of the group without residual intraoral medication. CONCLUSIONS: Reduced oral function and powered medication were associated with greater residual intraoral medication in this sample of older Japanese adults.

BACKGROUND: Deteriorated physical function makes older adults prone to fall, and it is therefore known to prompt elders to require long-term care. In this regard, oral function can be related to the loss of motor function. This cross-sectional study assessed the oral factors that increase the risk of falling among older adults. METHODS: We surveyed 672 self-reliant elderly individuals aged ≥65 years who were dwelling in a rural area. We assessed each subject's risk of falling and any related anxiety. Oral-related conditions (number of teeth, occlusal support, masticatory performance, occlusal force, and tongue pressure) and physical motor functions (gait speed, knee extension force, and one-legged standing) were also assessed. Statistical analyses were performed using Mann-Whitney's U-test, the χ2 test, and a logistic regression model. RESULTS: In all subjects, 23% had a history of falling, while 40% had anxiety over falling. Both factors were significantly higher among female subjects, who also had slower gait speeds, and greater lateral differences in occlusion. The subjects with histories of falling were older, had impaired physical motor function, and exhibited a decrease in occlusal force and left/right occlusal imbalances. We recognized similar trends for anxiety about falling. CONCLUSIONS: These results revealed that the risk of falling might be lessened by maintaining healthy teeth occlusion and promoting healthy oral function.

OBJECTIVE: The aims of this study were to compare the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) retrodiscal tissue T2 relaxation times between patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and asymptomatic volunteers and to assess the diagnostic potential of this approach. STUDY DESIGN: Patients with TMD (n = 173) and asymptomatic volunteers (n = 17) were examined by using a 1.5-T magnetic resonance scanner. The imaging protocol consisted of oblique sagittal, T2-weighted, 8-echo fast spin echo sequences in the closed mouth position. Retrodiscal tissue T2 relaxation times were obtained. Additionally, disc location and reduction, disc configuration, joint effusion, osteoarthritis, and bone edema or osteonecrosis were classified using MRI scans. The T2 relaxation times of each group were statistically compared. RESULTS: Retrodiscal tissue T2 relaxation times were significantly longer in patient groups than in asymptomatic volunteers (P < .01). T2 relaxation times were significantly longer in all of the morphologic categories. The most important variables affecting retrodiscal tissue T2 relaxation times were disc configuration, joint effusion, and osteoarthritis. CONCLUSIONS: Retrodiscal tissue T2 relaxation times of patients with TMD were significantly longer than those of healthy volunteers. This finding may lead to the development of a diagnostic marker to aid in the early detection of TMDs.

BACKGROUND: Several methods exist for objectively evaluating chewing efficiency by using gummy jelly. However, the validity of the subjective visual evaluation of chewing efficiency has not been assessed. OBJECTIVE: To verify with an epidemiological study, the validity of a visual scoring method using gummy jelly by testing the relationship between masticatory performance (MP) using a fully automatic measuring system and visual score (VS) using a visual scoring method. METHODS: Community-dwelling elderly individuals (n = 1234) ≥70 years old participated. One evaluator measured VS consecutively after participants chewed the gummy jelly (ie, actual-VS). The chewed jelly was photographed. Two evaluators used the photograph to measure the gummy jelly (ie, photo-VS). To test the validity of both methods, the correlation between actual-VS and MP and between photo-VS and MP were analysed. Inter-rater reliability between the evaluators of photo-VS was analysed. RESULTS: Significant correlations existed between actual-VS and MP and between photo-VS and MP (r = 0.86-0.87; P < 0.001). The intra-class correlation coefficient of the inter-rater reliability for photo-VS was very high (0.93; P < 0.001; 95% confidence interval: 0.877-0.953); however, the distribution of photo-VS deviated slightly from the actual-VS. A large coefficient of variation in the MP for low VSs suggested the influence of incomplete comminution, which was not reflected by the VS, and the accidental swallowing of small pieces during chewing. CONCLUSION: The VS deviated slightly from the MP calculated using a fully automated method; however, the VS can be utilised for epidemiological surveys with numerous participants.

BACKGROUND: Oral functions are known to decline with aging. However, there is limited evidence that supports the relationship between oral health and frailty. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between oral hygiene conditions, measured by remaining teeth and mucosa, and frailty among elderly people dwelling in a Japanese rural community. METHODS: We surveyed self-reliant elderly individuals aged ≥65 years who were dwelling in the Sasayama-Tamba area of Hyogo, Japan. Frailty was evaluated according to the total score of the Kihon Checklist (KCL). Based on the KCL score, elderly participants were divided into three groups: robust, pre-frail, and frail. The items measured to evaluate oral environment included the number of remaining teeth, denture usage condition, oral hygiene status, dry mouth condition, and salivary bacterial count. For statistical analysis, Fisher's exact test, one-way analysis of variance, and multiple comparison technique were used. RESULTS: Of 308 elderly participants, 203 (65.9%), 85 (27.6%), and 20 (6.5%) belonged to the robust, pre-frail, and frail groups, respectively. The proportion of participants who were judged to have poor hygiene was significantly higher in the frail group than in the other two groups. The bacterial count was significantly smaller in the frail group than in the robust group, and the frail group had fewer number of remaining teeth than the other two groups, suggesting that the number of remaining teeth may be associated with bacterial count. CONCLUSION: In elderly adults, physical frailty may affect the oral hygiene status and condition of the remaining teeth.

To develop effective nutritional interventions for preventing frailty, the specific problems associated with the dietary habits of individuals based on sex differences must be identified. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between dietary habits and frailty in rural Japanese community-dwelling older adults. We recruited 800 participants, aged 65 and older, who underwent a comprehensive health examination between November 2015 and December 2017. Dietary habits were assessed by a brief self-administered dietary history questionnaire. Frailty was determined using either the Kihon Checklist (KCL) or the Japanese version of the Cardiovascular Health Study (J-CHS). The percentage of frail older adults was 8.4% according to KCL and 4.0% according to J-CHS. Various kinds of nutrient intakes, including three major nutrients, minerals, and vitamins in frail men, according to KCL, were the lowest. By contrast, there were no differences in nutrient intake between the robust, prefrail, and frail female groups according to KCL. We found significant associations of the intakes of soluble dietary fiber, potassium, folate, and vitamin C with a frail status in men (p = 0.035, 0.023. 0.012, and 0.007, respectively), and an association of the intake of vitamin C with a frail status in women (p = 0.027) according to J-CHS. Attention should be paid to the diagnostic criteria of frailty and to sex differences, when nutritional interventions for the prevention of frailty are planned.

INTRODUCTION: Although previous studies have identified various factors related to masticatory performance, which factors affect longitudinal changes in masticatory performance have not been clarified. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to clarify factors involved in changes to masticatory performance and construct models from factors related to masticatory performance in a longitudinal study of a general urban population in Japan. METHODS: A total of 1,005 Japanese subjects (411 men, 594 women; mean age at baseline, 65.7 ± 7.7 years; mean follow-up period, 5.0 ± 0.9 years) were included in the Suita study. These subjects participated in dental checkups both at baseline (June 2008-December 2011) and at follow-up (June 2013-January 2017). The number of functional teeth and occlusal support areas was recorded and the latter assessed using the Eichner index. Subjects' periodontal status was evaluated based on the Community Periodontal Index. Masticatory performance was determined using test gummy jelly. Factors affecting masticatory performance at follow-up and the degree of their effect were investigated by multiple linear regression analysis. RESULTS: In multiple linear regression analysis with masticatory performance at follow-up as the dependent variable, baseline age, masticatory performance, number of functional teeth, and maximum bite force were significant independent variables. The results of multiple linear regression analyses by occlusal support at baseline identified only maximum bite force at baseline in subjects who were Eichner A and baseline age, masticatory performance, and number of functional teeth in subjects who were Eichner B as significant independent variables concerning masticatory performance at follow-up. CONCLUSION: Our study showed a relationship between longitudinal changes in masticatory performance and age, number of functional teeth, and maximum bite force and furthermore showed that the effects of these factors vary according to the residual number of occlusal support areas. KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER STATEMENT: Patients and clinicians should recognize the importance of objective and quantitative assessment for chewing efficiency and understand that various factors are related to longitudinal changes in masticatory performance. The results of this study can provide basic data for preventing or improving the decline in masticatory performance for elderly people with varying numbers of occlusal support areas.

© 2018 The Author(s). Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the physical properties of "admixture paste", which is a commercially available gel containing hinokitiol for use against severe stomatitis, and its characteristics as a moisturizing gel and denture adhesive. Methods: The admixture paste, which contained dexamethasone (Dexaltin®), gel for oral care (Refrecare H®) and petrolatum, and its 3 components, either alone or in different combinations, were subjected to viscosity, adhesiveness and elution testing to compare their physical properties. Viscosity was measured with a stress-controlled rheometer. Adhesive force was measured by tension test. Elution under a simulated oral environment was evaluated by monitoring with a fixed-point camera and absorbance. Both adhesiveness and elution were evaluated every hour for 6 h. A linear mixed-effects model was used to assess differences in the time course of elution between samples. In 3 og-rank test was used to compare time to elution into saliva among samples. Results: The results of viscosity testing demonstrated that the admixture paste had similar viscosity to cream-type denture adhesives and this was temperature independent. In the adhesiveness tests, the admixture paste showed stronger adhesiveness than that of cream-type denture adhesives. In the elution test, the admixture paste demonstrated gradual dissolution and apparent temporal changes for 6 h in a simulated oral environment. Conclusions: The results of the present study demonstrated that the admixture paste has adhesive force similar to those of denture adhesives and good local retention in saliva, and that it might be suitable for therapeutic use in patients with severe stomatitis derived from radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy for cancer.

© 2017 European Association for Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between displacement of the mandibular condyle/disc due to occlusal splint insertion with splint therapy and changes in discomfort of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), and to clarify the relationships between the outcomes over time of temporomandibular discomfort and TMJ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings at the initiation of splint therapy. Materials and methods A total of 75 patients admitted to hospital with discomfort around the TMJ were evaluated. A visual analogue scale for TMJ discomfort was administered during visits for approximately 3 months following the initiation of splint therapy. At the start of splint therapy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed with and without splint insertion, and condyle and disc movements were evaluated. Disc balance, disc position and function, disc configuration, joint effusion, osteoarthritis, and bone marrow were evaluated. Linear regression and multiple regression analyses were used to clarify relationships between changes in discomfort and the factors evaluated. Results There was no significant correlation between TMJ discomfort and condyle/disc movement with splint insertion. TMJ discomfort was significantly relieved by splint therapy regardless of temporomandibular MRI findings. Unilateral anterior disc displacement and marked or extensive joint effusion fluid were significantly improved with splint therapy. Conclusion Discomfort tended to remit with splint therapy regardless of temporomandibular MRI findings. Improvement of TMJ discomfort appears more likely to occur in patients with unilateral anterior disc displacement and with an apparent organic disorder, such as a joint effusion.

© 2017, The Society of The Nippon Dental University. Tongue pressure is reportedly associated with dysphagia. This study investigated relationships among characteristics of head and neck cancer, tongue pressure and dysphagia screening tests performed in patients with head and neck cancer during the acute phase after surgical resection. Fifty-seven patients (36 men, 21 women; age range 26–95 years) underwent surgical resection and dysphagia screening tests (Repetitive Saliva Swallowing Test, Water Swallowing Test, Modified Water Swallowing Test and Food Test) and pre- and postoperative measurement of tongue pressure at 5 time points (preoperatively, and 1–2 weeks and 1, 2, and 3 months postoperatively). Progression of cancer (stage), tracheotomy, surgical reconstruction, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and neck dissection were factors associated with postoperative tongue pressure. Data were analyzed by linear mixed-effect model, Spearman correlation coefficient and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Tongue pressure was significantly reduced 1–2 weeks after surgery, and recovered over time. Changes in tongue pressure were significantly associated with stage, radiotherapy and reconstruction. All screening tests showed a significant relationship with tongue pressure. Analysis of ROC and area under the effect curve suggested that a tongue pressure of 15 kPa can be used as a cut-off value to detect dysphagia after surgery for head and neck cancer. Our results suggest that tongue pressure evaluation might offer a safe, useful and objective tool to assess dysphagia immediately postoperatively in patients with head and neck cancer.

© 2017 European Association for Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery Objective To clarify whether altering temporomandibular joint (TMJ) condyle and disc positions by occlusal splint (splint) therapy relieves TMJ pain and to determine whether splint therapy facilitates improvement of the ranges of condyle and articular disc motions. Study design A total of 150 joints of 75 patients admitted with TMJ pain/discomfort were evaluated. A visual analog scale for TMJ pain was administered during visits following the start of splint treatment. At the start of splint treatment, MRI was performed with/without splint insertion, after which condyle/disc movements were evaluated. Disc position and function, disc configuration, joint effusion, osteoarthritis, and the bone marrow were evaluated. Pearson's correlation coefficients, linear regression, and multiple regression analyses were used for statistical analysis. Results Splint-related anterior movement of the condyle was related to TMJ pain. With a biconvex disc and/or bone marrow abnormality, splint treatment was ineffective for reducing TMJ pain. Conclusion Splint therapy was not likely to be successful for any kind of TMJ abnormalities, such as bone marrow abnormalities and/or a biconvex disc appearance on MRI.

There is some evidence to suggest that chewing gum reduces chronic stress. However, it remains controversial how the taste and odour properties of chewing gum influence stress. The present study was designed to investigate this issue in human subjects. Using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, we tested salivary cortisol concentration, which is thought to be a stress marker, in 96 adults who chewed gum with different combinations of taste and odour. Subjects could discriminate between the types of gum without prior information. Salivary cortisol concentrations were highest and lowest for the subjects who chewed the most flavourful gum and the least flavourful gum, respectively. These findings suggest that the salivary cortisol level during gum chewing is not a marker of negative emotions (i.e., stressful conditions) as traditionally considered but, rather, an index of positive emotions that can facilitate biological responses to overcome stressful conditions.

OBJECTIVE: This pilot study tested the effects of submandibular and sublingual gland stimulation by interferential current stimulation (IFCS), a noninvasive mode of electrical stimulation. STUDY DESIGN: Three groups were enrolled in this study: 20 young adults, 19 older adults, and 21 patients with dry mouth. Four electrodes were attached to the submandibular area, and the secreted saliva was collected by using Salivette cotton rolls (Sarstedt K. K., Tokyo, Japan) for 15 minutes, either with or without IFCS. Patients were randomly chosen to receive IFCS. Each subject rated pain and discomfort on the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) after each experiment. Saliva chromogranin A levels were measured as a stress marker. To compare data between conditions with and without IFCS, a two-sample Student t test analysis was performed. RESULTS: Saliva flow was slightly increased in those in the dry mouth group receiving IFCS compared with those who did not receive IFCS (approximately 130%). However, no such difference was found in the young and older adult groups. There was no significant difference in the VAS values of pain and discomfort or in the stress marker levels between patients who received or did not receive IFCS in the three groups. CONCLUSIONS: IFCS delivered to submandibular and sublingual glands may promote saliva secretion in persons who suffer from dry mouth in a manner that does not induce pain or physical stress.

Objectives: This study investigated Whether playing wind instruments has adverse effects on musculoskeletal functions among junior high school students who play in music clubs. Material and Methods: The study included 210 junior high school students (35 boys, 175 girls) belonging to 1 of 4 different school clubs that practiced playing wind instruments more than 6 days/week. The mean age of the participants was 14 years. The study was performed using a questionnaire survey and an electromyographic examination of jaw and cervical muscle activities during playing wind instruments. Results: The prevalence of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) among the children playing woodwind (WW) or brass wind (BW) instruments was higher than in those playing non-wind (NW) instruments. Long duration of playing WW with a reed mouthpiece or BW with a small mouthpiece was suggested to affect the incidence of TMD, which was more marked in girls than in boys, irrespective of height or weight. Muscle activity in the masseter muscle during playing an instrument was significantly higher in the BW with a small mouthpiece group than in the NW group (p < 0.05). In cervical muscles, muscle activity of both the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles was higher during playing BW than in the case of other instruments, and activity in the sternocleidomastoid muscle was significantly higher in the BW with a small mouthpiece group than in the case of other instrument groups (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Playing wind instruments may have adverse effects on musculoskeletal functions among junior high school students playing in music clubs as compared with playing NW instruments. The prevalence of TMD among the students playing wind instruments was higher than in those playing other instruments. Long duration of playing those instruments affects musculoskeletal function, and this effect is more marked in girls than in boys, irrespective of height or weight.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: T2 relaxation time is a quantitative MR imaging parameter used to detect degenerated cartilage in the knee and lumbar intervertebral disks. We measured the T2 relaxation time of the articular disk of the temporomandibular joint in patients with temporomandibular disorders and asymptomatic volunteers to demonstrate an association between T2 relaxation time and temporomandibular disorder MR imaging findings. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred forty-four patients with temporomandibular disorders and 17 volunteers were enrolled in this study. An 8-echo spin-echo sequence for measuring the T2 relaxation times was performed in the closed mouth position, and the T2 relaxation time of the entire articular disk was measured. Patients were classified according to the articular disk location and function, articular disk configuration, presence of joint effusion, osteoarthritis, and bone marrow abnormalities. RESULTS: The T2 relaxation time of the entire articular disk was 29.3 ± 3.8 ms in the volunteer group and 30.7 ± 5.1 ms in the patient group (P = .177). When subgroups were analyzed, however, the T2 relaxation times of the entire articular disk in the anterior disk displacement without reduction group, the marked or extensive joint effusion group, the osteoarthritis-positive group, and the bone marrow abnormality-positive group were significantly longer than those in the volunteer group (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: The T2 relaxation times of the articular disk of the temporomandibular joint in patients with progressive temporomandibular disorders were longer than those of healthy volunteers.

Objectives: We compared joint pain (JP) in patients diagnosed with and without articular disc displacement without reduction (ADD) based on the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) and identified the characteristics of each JP. Study Design: Fifty-eight patients with restricted mouth opening and pain in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and with a magnetic resonance imaging diagnosis of ADD were selected. Diagnosis of ADD + JP and nonADD + JP was made with the use of the RDC/TMD. Results: A multiple regression analysis of the data disclosed a positive correlation between range of motion on maximum assisted mouth opening and visual analog scale (VAS) (severity of JP) in the ADD + JP group, and between chronic pain grade (CPG) and VAS in the nonADD + JP group. A significant difference was observed between ADD + JP and nonADD + JP groups in CPG; CPG was higher in the nonADD + JP than in the ADD + JP group. Conclusions: It is suggested that JP related and unrelated to ADD can indicate different types of disease. © 2013 Elsevier Inc.

Background:Flavor perception, the integration of taste and odor, is a critical factor in eating behavior. It remains unclear how such sensory signals influence the human brain systems that execute the eating behavior.Methods:We tested cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the frontal lobes bilaterally while subjects chewed three types of gum with different combinations of taste and odor: no taste/no odor gum (C-gum), sweet taste/no odor gum (T-gum), and sweet taste/lemon odor gum (TO-gum). Simultaneous recordings of transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) and near infrared spectrometer (NIRS) were used to measure CBF during gum chewing in 25 healthy volunteers. Bilateral masseter muscle activity was also monitored.Results:We found that subjects could discriminate the type of gum without prior information. Subjects rated the TO-gum as the most flavorful gum and the C-gum as the least flavorful. Analysis of masseter muscle activity indicated that masticatory motor output during gum chewing was not affected by taste and odor. The TCD/NIRS measurements revealed significantly higher hemodynamic signals when subjects chewed the TO-gum compared to when they chewed the C-gum and T-gum.Conclusions:These data suggest that taste and odor can influence brain activation during chewing in sensory, cognitive, and motivational processes rather than in motor control. © 2013 Hasegawa et al.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the usefulness of computerized tomography (CT), particularly contrast-enhanced CT, in differentiation of jaw cysts and cystic-appearing tumors. Study Design: We retrospectively analyzed contrast-enhanced CT images of 90 patients with odontogenic jaw cysts or cystic-appearing tumors. The lesion size and CT values were measured and the short axis to long axis (S/L) ratio, contrast enhancement (CE) ratio, and standard deviation ratio were calculated. Results: The lesion size and the S/L ratio of keratocystic odontogenic tumors were significantly different from those of radicular cysts and follicular cysts. There were no significant differences in the CE ratio among the lesions. Conclusions: Multidetector CT provided diagnostic information about the size of odontogenic cysts and cystic-appearing tumors of the jaws that was related to the lesion type, but showed no relation between CE ratio and the type of these lesions. © 2013 Elsevier Inc.

Study Objectives: Sleep bruxism (SB) is reported to vary in frequency over time. The aim of this study was to assess the first night effect on SB. Methods: A retrospective polysomnographic (PSG) analysis was performed of data from a sample of SB patients (12 females, 4 males; age range: 17-39 years) recorded in a sleep laboratory over 2 consecutive nights. Sleep parameters and jaw muscle activity variables (i.e., rhythmic masticatory muscle activity [RMMA]) for SB were quantified and compared between the 2 nights. Subjects were classified into groups according to severity of RMMA frequency, such as low frequency (2-4 episodes/h and/or < 25 bursts/h) and moderate-high frequency (≥ 4 episodes/h and ≥ 25 bursts/h). Results: Overall, no first night effects were found for most sleep variables. However, total sleep time, sleep efficiency, and stage transitions showed significant time and group interactions (repeated measures ANOVAs, p ≤ 0.05). The RMMA episode index did not differ between the 2 nights, whereas the second night showed significantly higher burst index, bruxism time index, and mean burst duration (repeated measure ANOVAs, p ≤ 0.05). Five patients of 8 in the low frequency group were classified into the moderate-high frequency group on the second night, whereas only one patient in the moderate-high frequency group moved to the low frequency group. Conclusions: The results showed no overall first night effect on severity of RMMA frequency in young and healthy patients with SB. In clinical practice, one-night sleep recording may be sufficient for moderate-high frequency SB patients. However, low RMMA frequency in the first night could be confirmed by a second night based on the patient's medical and dental history.

Objective: This retrospective cohort study was conducted to investigate the influence of wearing dentures in the initial occurrence site of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ). Study Design: A questionnaire regarding the prevalence, therapy, and outcome of jawbone lesions during 2006-08 was mailed to 248 medical institutions with an oral and maxillofacial surgery department in Japan. Results: Ninety-nine patients wearing dentures had significantly shorter duration until occurrence than 151 patients not wearing dentures. In addition, remission of BRONJ affecting the mandibular canine and premolar region in denture-wearing patients was significantly more difficult. Poor oral hygiene status was found to affect significantly the prognosis of BRONJ in denture-wearing patients. Alcohol habit also delayed remission, but high body mass index promoted remission. Conclusion: Wearing a denture in the initial occurrence site of BRONJ was shown to influence the prognosis of BRONJ, especially in mandibular denture-wearing patients. © 2012 Elsevier Inc.

Jaw clenching (clenching) is the result of an isometric contraction of jaw closing muscles. Because of the location of working muscles and afferent information during tooth contact, the effect of clenching on the cerebral and systemic circulation might differ from that of isometric limb exercise. This study aimed to investigate the characteristic changes in cerebral and systemic circulation during jaw clenching by comparing those during handgrip exercise. Subjects were 17 right-handed men. Bilateral middle cerebral arterial blood flow velocity (MCAV), electromyography (EMG) of contracting muscles, heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) were measured during unilateral handgrip exercise and clenching tasks. Autonomic nerve activity was evaluated by analyzing fluctuations in HR and BP. MCAV was significantly increased during the task with significantly higher values on the non-working than working side irrespective of unilateral handgrip or unilateral jaw clenching. Changes in HR during jaw clenching were lower than those during handgrip exercise, and changes in vaso-motor sympathetic nerve activity during left jaw clenching were lower than those during left handgrip exercise. The present results indicate that, compared with handgrip exercise, unilateral jaw clenching promotes bilateral activation of MCAV with smaller effects on cardiac output and sympathetic nervous system activity.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate, with the use of magnetic resonance images, mandibular condyle and articular disc movement on occlusal splint application. Study design: Thirty-five subjects were classified into "Pain" and "No-pain" groups based on visual analog scale scoring of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain and were categorized as bilateral normal disc (ND), unilateral anterior disc displacement (ADD), or bilateral ADD position. t test and analysis of variance with multiple comparisons were used for statistical analyses. Results: Pain and No-pain groups showed significant anteroinferior and rotated movement of the condyle on splint application, but the disc did not significantly move in the Pain group. Of all groups, anteroposterior movement of the condyle and disc with the splint was significantly less in the unilateral ADD group. Conclusions: TMJ pain was associated with decreased movement of the articular disc. Disc and condyle movement was different in the unilateral ADD group in the presence of a splint compared with the ND and bilateral ADD groups. © 2011 Mosby, Inc.

Purpose: The present study was undertaken to elucidate the factors responsible for the failure of arthrocentesis to cure persistent joint pain in patients with nonreducing articular disc displacement in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Patients and Methods: Thirty-six patients with internal derangement of the TMJ were selected. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to examine the configuration and position of the articular discs, cortical changes, and bone marrow abnormalities in the condyle and the presence of joint effusion. Arthrocentesis was then performed, and the patients were followed for 6 weeks. The results were then classified as poor or improved. Results: The effects of arthrocentesis did not depend on the configuration of the disc, disc position and motion, or bone marrow abnormalities. Joints with no or minimal amounts of joint effusion achieved a good response to arthrocentesis. Joints with erosive cortical changes of the condyle were less responsive to arthrocentesis. Conclusion: Persistent joint pain after arthrocentesis is generally associated with extensive amounts of joint effusion or erosive cortical changes of the condyle. © 2011 American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons.

Mastication as a mild but life-long exercise has been examined as a possibility for maintaining brain function in the elderly. Little is known, however, about the cerebral circulatory response during masticatory movement. The aim of this study was to develop a monitoring system for circulation dynamics during masticatory movement and to apply this system to the study of cerebral autoregulation. Cerebral blood flow, heart rate, and arterial blood pressure were simultaneously recorded, and changes in these circulatory systems were quantitatively evaluated in 38 young healthy volunteers. Transfer function analysis was also performed on blood pressure and cerebral blood flow for investigation of cerebral autoregulation during gum chewing. Although increases in cerebral blood flow, mean blood pressure, and heart rate suggested the activation of cerebral and systemic circulation during gum chewing, increased cerebral circulation was independent of systemic circulation. Our results suggest that cerebral autoregulation is well maintained during jaw movements. © 2011 International & American Associations for Dental Research.

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence on cerebral hemodynamics of voluntary control of masticatory side and rhythm during gum chewing. Blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery was measured using transcranial Doppler ultrasonography to evaluate cerebral circulation in healthy volunteers. Heart rate and masseter muscle activity were recorded simultaneously. Volunteers performed three tasks: (1) free gum chewing, (2) gum chewing in which mastication was limited to the right side, and (3) gum chewing in which mastication was limited to the right side and rhythm was set at 1.0 Hz. Changes in cerebral circulation during pre-task, on-task, and post-task periods were analyzed using random effects model, and differences in cerebral circulation and muscle activity between tasks were analyzed using the Friedman test. In all tasks, on-task cerebral circulation was greater than pre-task. Muscle activity and masticatory rhythm varied between tasks, whereas the rate of increase in cerebral circulation did not differ significantly among tasks. These results suggest that cerebral circulation is activated during gum chewing, irrespective of voluntary control of masticatory side and rhythm. © 2009 Springer-Verlag.

Journal compilation © 2009 Eur J Oral Sci Mastication has been proven to enhance the systemic circulation, with circulatory responses seeming to be largely regulated by autonomic nervous activity via a more complex regulatory system than those of other activities. However, few studies have examined the relationships between changes in autonomic nervous activity and the systemic circulation that are induced by masticatory movement. We investigated changes in the systemic circulation and autonomic nervous activity during gum chewing to clarify the influence of mastication. Electrocardiograms, arterial blood pressure, and masseter electromyograms were taken while chewing gum continuously as indicators of systemic circulation in 10 healthy subjects with normal dentition. Cardiac sympathetic activity and vagus nervous activity, as well as vasomotor sympathetic nervous activity, were evaluated by fluctuation analysis of heart rate and blood pressure. Repeated analysis of variance and multiple comparisons were performed to determine chronological changes in each indicator during gum chewing. Gum chewing increased the heart rate and the mean arterial pressure. Although cardiac sympathetic activity and vagus nervous activity showed significant changes, vasomotor sympathetic nervous activity did not. These results suggest that changes in the autonomic nervous activity of the heart are mainly involved in the enhancement of systemic circulation with gum chewing. This explains some characteristics of autonomic nervous regulation in masticatory movement. © 2009 The Authors. Journal compilation © 2009 Eur J Oral Sci.

In elderly persons, it is thought that maintenance of masticatory function may have a beneficial effect on maintenance of cerebral function. However, few studies on cerebral circulation during mastication exist. This study aimed to verify a possible increase in cerebral circulation and the presence of cerebral hemispheric dominance during gum chewing. Twelve healthy, young right-handed subjects with normal dentition were enrolled. Bilateral middle cerebral arterial blood flow velocities (MCAV), heart rate, and arterial carbon dioxide levels were measured during a handgrip exercise and gum chewing. During gum chewing, electromyography of the bilateral masseter muscle was recorded.MCAV and heart rate significantly increased during exercise compared to values at rest.During gum chewing, there were no differences in the rate of increase in MCAV between the working and non-working sides, but during the handgrip exercise, the rate of increase in MCAV was significantly greater for the non-working side than for the working side.During gum chewing,muscle activity on the working side was significantly greater than that on the non-working side. These results suggest that during gum chewing, cerebral circulation increases bilaterally and does not show contralateral dominance, as it does during the handgrip exercise. © 2007 Steinkopff-Verlag.

Temporal changes in cerebral blood flow induced by jaw movement have yet to be investigated. To assess the influence of pattern and intensity of muscle contraction during jaw movement on task-induced change in cerebral blood flow, we performed bilateral transcranial Doppler ultrasound examination during clenching, gum chewing, and tooth tapping in healthy volunteers. A random-effects model analysis revealed a significant increase in middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity during clenching (high muscle activity) and gum chewing (moderate muscle activity), compared with the preceding rest period; however, such an increase was not detected during tooth tapping (low muscle activity). Cerebral blood flow was greater on the working side during the intensive isometric contraction of the masseter muscle in clenching. These results suggest that task-induced change in cerebral blood flow during jaw movement is influenced by the change in peripheral circulation evoked by muscle contraction.

口腔機能の低下が身体機能の低下、特に転倒リスクに及ぼす影響について検討した。兵庫県丹波圏域に在住する自立した65歳以上の高齢者で、医科歯科合同の学術研究調査に参加した674名(男性202名、女性472名、平均72.8±5.9歳)を対象とした。対象者のうちフレイルは55名(8.2%)、プレフレイルは209名(31.0%)であり、フレイル群が有意に高齢であった。フレイル群はオーラルフレイル該当項目が他2群と比較して有意に多く、身体機能が低下し、転倒の既往がある者を多く認めた。身体機能および転倒の既往と口腔機能との関連について検討した結果、咀嚼能力低下/嚥下困難感を認めた対象者が、身体機能が低下しているまたは転倒の既往があるという結果を示した。ロジスティック回帰の結果、自覚的な咀嚼困難感または自覚的な嚥下困難感がある場合は、フレイル/プレフレイルである場合が多く、フレイルは咀嚼困難、プレフレイルは嚥下困難を感じている場合が多いことが示唆された。

近年、高齢者のフレイル予防と健康長寿における咀嚼の重要性が注目されている。咀嚼は運動としては軽微であるが、豊富な感覚情報や情動変化を伴うため、脳循環や体循環を賦活化する効果を有している。また、客観的な咀嚼能力検査によって、咀嚼能力の低下がメタボリックシンドローム罹患のリスクとなることが示唆された。さらに、肥満予防を目的とした咀嚼行動変容を促すための、ウエアラブルデバイスの開発が行われている。このように、運動、能力、行動の様々な面からアプローチすることによって、咀嚼を利用した高齢者のヘルスプロモーションの可能性が広がるものと期待される。(著者抄録)
