30 years have passed since the start of the my practice, “I will take care of the patients for the rest of their life” But now I understand that “life” is my life, not a patient’s life. Some of the elderly patients who have come to my practice for a long time may not able to come. So I can not take care of them until their end of life. In a super-aged society It is noted that to maintain oral function leads to the extension of the healthy life span. There are many elderly people who need dental treatment even if they can not go to the dental clinic, and they are required to be involved as a home dentist until the end of life. I would like to consider what is required in the super-aged society as a home dentist.
