The Oral Biomechanical Functions of Hong Kong Healthy Adults

Hong Kong and Japan are similar in terms of facing the super-ageing society. Maintaining oral function in elderly is particularly important because it affects social, physical and mental health to the people and to the society. By using technology seems to be one of the solutions in dealing with this. Thus, this project aims at using state-of-the-art Age-tech that have been used in Japan to implement "Oral Frailty" concept in Hong Kong. Through identifying oral biomechanical in elderly population, the investigators expect the situation can be improved, and the data analysed and collected can be useful and impactful that can influence the dental communities around Southeast Asia and the globe.
