    <p> <b>Abstract</b> As the aging of society in Japan has progressed, the Faculty of Dentistry of Kagoshima University introduced simulation training of the elderly using equipment in the first phase of clinical training in 2020 in order to deepen physical understanding of the elderly. This training is conducted as part of the practice of home-visit dental care simulation training, which has been carried out using a simulator and portable treatment equipment based on a scenario that assumes providing dental treatment at the visiting site. Seven types of equipment were used in the simulation training for the elderly : earmuffs, goggles to simulate the visually impaired, elbow/knee supporters, weight bands for wrists/ankles, and belts for bending forward. We let the dental students experience walking, going up and down stairs, and unlocking a numeric keypad of a door. During the practical training, many students had difficulty going up and down stairs in a stooped posture and with narrowed vision, and they often asked for support from their caregivers, who naturally gave them assistance. In the post-training questionnaire survey, more than half of the students said that their impressions of the elderly had changed after the training. It is thought that actually experiencing the physical burden and hardships that the elderly feel physically in their daily lives was highly significant, and increased the students’ awareness. It is suggested that this training increased understanding of the physical characteristics of the elderly. In the future, we are considering enhancing the training content to raise students’ understanding further.</p>

    <p>The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of light irradiation through the outer surface of a CAD/CAM composite resin crown on the initial bond strength of a dual-cure resin cement. A CAD/CAM composite resin block was cut to a thickness of 2 mm as a specimen, and the surface was treated with phosphoric acid and silane coupling agent. Adherend for the shear bond strength test made of silver-palladium-copper-gold alloy was bonded to the specimen with dual-cure resin cement. Assuming a clinical situation, the specimen was irradiated by dental curing light 5 minutes after the bonding procedure. A total of 90 specimens were divided into three groups: group without light irradiation, group with light irradiation for 3 seconds, group with light irradiation for 20 seconds. Half of the specimens in each group (n = 15) were measured for shear bond strength after 1 hour, and the remaining half (n = 15) were measured after 24 hours according to ISO/TR 11405. As a result, the bond strength of the group with light irradiation for 20 seconds was significantly higher than that of the other two groups at 1 hour after the bonding procedure. There was no significant difference in bond strength between all groups at 24 hours after the bonding procedure. There was no significant difference between the bond strength after 1 hour of the group with light irradiation for 20 seconds and the bond strength after 24 hours of all groups. It was shown that high initial bond strength can be obtained by irradiating light for a sufficient time when luting a CAD/CAM composite resin crown.</p>

    Background:
    Mastication has been regarded to play an important role in achieving quality daily life for the elderly. On the occlusal surface of
    posterior artificial teeth, parallel grooves of 1 mm depth and 1 mm width with an inter-groove distance of 2 mm have been found to
    significantly improve masticatory efficiency on a mechanical simulator.
    Materials and Methods:
    In the present study, the effect of the grooved design on masticatory efficiency in edentulous subjects using a short-term crossover
    trial was evaluated. Six edentulous participants, 1 male and 5 females, were assigned into two groups. One received duplicated
    complete dentures with grooved molars first, and the other received duplicated complete dentures with conventional molars first. The
    design of the teeth was crossover after evaluating masticatory efficiency. Raw carrot, raw lettuce and mixed foodstuffs were used to
    evaluate masticatory efficiency. Subjects were instructed to masticate 20 strokes and arbitrary strokes until they felt like swallowing.
    Results:
    The number of masticatory strokes taken was significantly smaller using the grooved design (p<.05). Masticatory efficiency analysis
    revealed that the grooved design achieved significantly higher masticatory efficiency at 20 masticatory strokes for raw carrot and
    mixed foodstuffs (p<.05).
    Conclusion:
    Results show that compared with conventional lingualized occlusion, the grooved design accomplishes higher masticatory efficiency
    in vivo. Considering the distinction of this design that it can be applied to any existing denture occlusion, the design might help
    improve the dietary life of the elderly.

    PURPOSE:

    The low masticatory efficiency of denture prostheses impairs the ability of wearers to consume high-fiber foods. Hence, artificial teeth with high masticatory efficiency are required. This study aimed to establish an occlusal surface design for posterior artificial teeth in denture prostheses that is compatible with the existing artificial teeth arrangement and that has high masticatory efficiency for the comminution of raw vegetables.

    METHODS:

    A masticatory simulator for occluding complete dentures was used to evaluate the masticatory efficiency of four occlusal surface designs, i.e., with parallel grooves occluding at right angles to the opposing teeth, groove depths of 1 and 0.5mm, and inter-groove distances of 1, 2, and 3mm. Raw carrots, rice, raw lettuce, chicken breasts, and peanuts were used as test foods to evaluate food comminution.

    RESULTS:

    Grooved occlusal surface designs with a 1-mm groove depth and a 2- or 3-mm inter-groove distance demonstrated significantly greater masticatory efficiency than the conventional occlusal form (p<0.05).

    CONCLUSIONS:

    The superiority of grooved designs over the conventional design was particularly evident for lettuce and raw carrots in this study, both of which are considered difficult foods to chew with complete dentures.

    The wave analysis of swallowing sounds has been receiving attention because the recording process is easy and non‐invasive. However, up until now, an expert has been needed to visually examine the entire recorded wave to distinguish swallowing from other sounds. The purpose of this study was to establish a methodology to automatically distinguish the sound of swallowing from sound data recorded during a meal in the presence of everyday ambient sound. Seven healthy participants (mean age: 26·7 ± 1·3 years) participated in this study. A laryngeal microphone and a condenser microphone attached to the nostril were used for simultaneous recording. Recoding took place while participants were taking a meal and talking with a conversational partner. Participants were instructed to step on a foot pedal trigger switch when they swallowed, representing self‐enumeration of swallowing, and also to achieve six additional noise‐making tasks during the meal in a randomised manner. The automated analysis system correctly detected 342 out of the 352 self‐enumerated swallowing events (sensitivity: 97·2%) and 479 out of the 503 semblable wave periods of swallowing (specificity: 95·2%). In this study, the automated detection system for swallowing sounds using a nostril microphone was able to detect the swallowing event with high sensitivity and specificity even under the conditions of daily life, thus showing potential utility in the diagnosis or screening of dysphagic patients in future studies.

    Objective parameters that could provide a basis for food texture selection for elderly or dysphagic patients have not been established. We, therefore, aimed to develop a precise method of measuring large particles (>2 mm in diameter) in a bolus and an analytical method to provide a scientific rationale for food selection under masticatory dysfunction conditions. We developed a new illumination system to evaluate the ability of twenty female participants (mean age, 23·4 ± 4·3 years) to masticate carrots, peanuts and beef with full, half and one quarter of the number of masticatory strokes. We also evaluated mastication under suppressed force, regulated by 20% electromyographic of the masseter muscle. The intercept and inclination of the regression line for the distribution of large particles were adopted as coefficients for the discrimination of masticatory efficiency. Single set of coefficient thresholds of 0·10 for the intercept and 1·62 for the inclination showed excellent discrimination of masticatory conditions for all three test foods with high specificity and sensitivity. These results suggested that our method of analysing the distribution of particles >2 mm in diameter might provide the basis for the appropriate selection of food texture for masticatory dysfunction patients from the standpoint of comminution.

    Because food texture is regarded as an important factor for smooth deglutition, identification of objective parameters that could provide a basis for food texture selection for elderly or dysphagic patients is of great importance. We aimed to develop an objective evaluation method of mastication using a mixed test food comprising foodstuffs, simulating daily dietary life. The particle size distribution (>2 mm in diameter) in a bolus was analysed using a digital image under dark‐field illumination. Ten female participants (mean age ± s.d., 27·6 ± 2·6 years) masticated a mixed test food comprising prescribed amounts of rice, sausage, hard omelette, raw cabbage and raw cucumber with 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% of the number of their masticatory strokes. A single set of coefficient thresholds of 0·10 for the homogeneity index and 1·62 for the particle size index showed excellent discrimination of deficient masticatory conditions with high sensitivity (0·90) and specificity (0·77). Based on the results of this study, normal mastication was discriminated from deficient masticatory conditions using a large particle analysis of mixed foodstuffs, thus showing the possibility of future application of this method for objective decision‐making regarding the properties of meals served to dysphagic patients.
