Association between the degree of Parkinson’s disease progression and the oral environment
The results of this study suggest the possibility of an association between the degree of PD progression, such as age and disease duration, and the deterioration of the oral environment. These results encourage specialized personnel to pay attention to the tongue and dry mouth condition, especially for older PD patients with a long disease duration.
