抄録	Background/purpose: Oral health care provision in long-term care settings is often limited by specific behaviors exhibited by residents, which may be interpreted as a refusal of care. Such behaviors can be attributed to oral tactile hypersensitivity (TH), which is characterized by aberrations in the perception of oral stimuli. TH is also associated with a decline in ingestion and swallowing function. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a technique for mitigating TH (TMH) among institutionalized older persons. Materials and methods: In this study, 18 institutionalized older persons (Mean age, 90.6 +/- 4.5 years; 92.9% females) with TH were randomized to a control group or an intervention group. Pre-and post-intervention assessments were conducted for seven participants in each group. Routine oral care was provided by the facility's staff in both groups. TMH in the intervention group was performed by a dental hygienist over a 3-month period. Results: In the intervention group, the number of areas with TH was significantly reduced (P Z 0.027). No significant change was observed in the control group.
