Papers related to the question of "how occlusion and masticatory function contribute to general health and longevity" were reviewed. Longitudinal cohort studies on humans were examined. There are many confirmed factors associated with incidence of fatal diseases or mortality, such as smoking, dietary habits, and socioeconomic factors. Therefore I selected researches of the association between oral health and general health or life expectancy adjusted for these confounding factors by a multivariate analysis.From the literature survey, it is concluded that (1) the number of teeth is associated with longevity; (2) the pathway for the association should be infection and inflammation resulting from periodontal disease andnutritional change by the decline of oral functions; (3) tooth loss decreases intakes of vegetables, which areimportant for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases; (4) among fully-edentulous patients and partially-edentulous patients with a few teeth, a disuse removable dentures may cause short life expectancy; (5) at the present time, there is little evidence of the association of quality of prostheses or oral function with general health and longevity.
