In today's society characterized by the availability of increasingly sophisticated and complicated information, aging, and a declining birthrate, the environment surrounding dentistry faces new and diverse challenges. As many professionals in the field share the belief that dysphagia rehabilitation and dental care at the end of life are ways to improve quality of life of the elderly, particularly those who suffer from ailments, significant progress is being made in related research and treatment. Moreover, increased specialization in dentistry has sparked various moves, such as creating specialists in respective disciplines, making dental internship mandatory, and extending the training period for dental hygienists to three years, in response to the requirements of highly specialized dental medicine. With that backdrop in mind, all dental professionals are expected to provide dental health care for the future under shared vision and values, with the goal of going beyond oral health and benefiting the overall physical health of our fellow citizens.
