Five thousand eight hundred elderly persons (2, 212 males and 3, 588 females) aged 40 years or above, who lived in Miyako district, Okinawa, were examined for the occuccence of dental caries, periodontal diseases, and tooth loss with reference to systemic conditions of the examinees.<BR>The Average number per person of present, intact, and carious teeth decreased with increase of age, and the rate of carious teeth (the total, untreated and heavy) and tooth loss increased. However, the relative number of persons who suffered from dental diseases, namely dental caries. periodontal diseases, or untreated tooth defects, decreased with higher age. Compared to ambulatory (non-bed-ridden) persons aged 60 years or higher, the bed-ridden had fewer present and intact teeth and the rate of untreated and severe carious teeth was higher. The Majority of the bed-ridden also had multiple and severe dental diseases, mainly dental caries and tooth loss, at higher rate. The tooth defects were mostly untreated but no other dental diseases coexisted in most of the cases.<BR>A significant number (41.3%) of the examinees had systemic disorders, mainly cardiovascular diseases. Most of the patients suffered from multiple diseases (40.2%) and required medical treatment (51.9%). Approximately two-thirds (63.4%) of the examinees required dental treatment. The bed-ridlen had generally a multiple number of systemic diseases, of which more than half (55.3%), compared to onefourth (28.1%) for the healthy, required prompt medical examination and treatment. The neccessity of dental treatment was higher (61.9%) for the bed-ridden than for the ambulatoy (53.9%), and in most cases prompt treatment was desirable.
