“…Although the causative factors of cognitive impairment are still not entirely known, sex, age, family history, brain injury, physical inactivity and systemic diseases have been identified . Poor oral health was also reported as a risk factor of cognitive impairment in many studies . A Japanese study reported that tooth loss can change dietary patterns and ultimately cause cognitive impairment .…”

“…Another 4‐year prospective cohort study reported that tooth loss is a strong risk factor for cognitive impairment in elderly people . A separate study concluded that oral health status is related to the degree of cognitive function, and another reported that gingivitis is a risk factor for the onset and progress of Alzheimer's disease . Thus, the oral health of individuals with cognitive impairment is related to their cognitive function as well as general health.…”

Objectives This study compared the oral health status between elderly individuals with and without cognitive impairment and explored the association of oral health and activities of daily living (ADL) with cognitive impairment. Methods We conducted convenience sampling on patients aged more than 65 years and analysed data from 630 participants. Data were collected and analysed via a survey evaluating general characteristics, oral health behaviour, subjective oral health status, Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP‐14), Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) and ADL. Results The path analysis and regression analysis of the association of oral health and ADL with cognitive impairment showed that the OHIP‐14 was not significantly associated with cognitive impairment, whereas the GOHAI and ADL had significant associations with cognitive impairment. A 1‐point increase in the GOHAI was associated with a 0.024‐point increase in the cognitive impairment score, and a 1‐point increase in the ADL was associated with a 0.006‐point decrease in the cognitive impairment score (normal = 0, cognitive impairment = 1). Conclusions Poor oral health and ADL were associated with cognitive impairment. Therefore, oral hygiene management is important in maintaining oral health in elderly individuals with cognitive impairment.

“…found that patients with natural dentition had better cognitive ability (i.e., a higher Mini-Mental State Examination score) than those with removable dentures 11 . Poor oral health in the elderly has been reported to be strongly associated with dementia 8–11 ; however, oral health is still considered to be separate from and less important than systemic health 12 .…”

We have investigated the association of oral health with development of dementia in elderly Koreans. Data for subjects aged ≥65 years who underwent regular National Health Insurance Service check-ups and received dental care in 2017 were analysed. Those treated for dementia in 2017 served as the dementia group and those with no record of dementia in 2002–2017 as the control group. Explanatory variables were sex, age, household income, place of residence, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and presence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension, periodontitis, and removable dentures. Regression analysis showed that dementia was significantly more common in women than in men and in those aged ≥81 years than in those aged 65–70 years. The risk of dementia was highest in the ‘upper-middle’ income group and in the rural population. Smokers and those who consumed alcohol were less likely to develop dementia. Subjects with diabetes were more likely to have dementia than those without it, as were those with hypertension. Dementia was less likely in subjects with periodontitis and more likely in those with removable dentures. Therefore, loss of teeth may contribute to development of dementia.
