Association between subjective oral dysfunction and locomotive syndrome in community-dwelling older adults
Abstract The need for support and care is a major problem facing societies around the world. Locomotive syndrome (LS) refers to a condition in which people require healthcare services because of problems associated with locomotion. Oral dysfunction is also associated with various long-term care fact...
