|
I participated in Academic Exchange Program(Action plan II) between KADH(Korean Association for Disability and Oral Health) and JSDH(Japanses Society for Disability and Oral Health) for 2 months from 3rd July 2012 to 2nd september 2012 in the Department of Hygiene and Oral Health, School of Dentistry, Showa University at Tokyo, Japan.
I have observed their operation process and learned what dysphagia is and how it is consulted and taken care of as a therapy for patients with eating and swallowing disorders for two months in The department of special needs dentistry at Showa University Dental Hospital, Jonan Branch of Tokyo Metropolitan Kita Medical Rehabilitation Center for the Disabled, Smile Nakano Center, Tokyo metropolitan center for persons with disabilities in Lidabashi for one week, Eating and swallowing functional therapy workshop for disabled children, Tokyo metropolitan Tobu medical center for Persons with Developmental/Multiple Disabilities located in Minamisunamitchi for one week and on The 17-18th JSDR(Japanese Society of Dysphagia rehabilitation) in Sapporo.
Through Action Plan II program, I learned how precious eating, drinking and swallowing with ease are and observed how they do and what they do as a dentist or a dental hygienist in Japan for dysphagia patients. Therefore, I want to present the dental approaches of children with dysphagia in Japan, based on my experience for two months.
