NDCS launches oral screening tool on Health Buddy app

It assesses the risk of severe gum disease and oral frailty.

The National Dental Centre Singapore has introduced an oral health screening tool on SingHealth’s Health Buddy application.

The new tool allows users to assess their risk of severe gum disease and oral frailty through a self-assessment questionnaire.

The platform consists of a simplified nomogram for gum disease that includes six questions to predict the risk of the disease.

It also includes the Oral Frailty Index-8 which features eight questions to evaluate oral frailty risk in adults.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
