Abstract
Korea is on the verge of becoming a super-aged society, and the structure of the disease is changing accordingly. One of the measures to lower the medical and social burden for the elderly is early detection and prevention of elderly frailty. Oral frailty in elderly is reported to be manifested prior to whole body frailty. So, if oral frailty is diagnosed and treated early, independency in mobility and healthy aging of elderly can be effectively promoted.
The Korean Academy of Geriatric Dentistry launched establishing a clinical guideline of oral frailty for Korean elderly with diagnostic criteria and treatment modality. If two out of the six criteria, chewing function, occlusal force, tongue force, salivary gland function, swallowing function, and oral hygiene, are checked as not ¡®normal¡¯ but ¡®at risk¡¯, the patient is diagnosed as having oral frailty.
In this paper, evaluation methods and exercise therapies for swallowing function (out of the six criteria for oral frailty) is described in detail.
