Exploring Associations Between Oral Health and Frailty in Community-Dwelling Older People

The studies exploring the association between oral conditions and Frailty status are increasing in number, and many manuscripts have been published during the last couple of years. Even when Everaars et al. (1) manuscript is cross-sectional, it contributes to the knowledge by confirming the association between oral conditions and Frailty despite the selected strategy for measuring Frailty since authors added the interview Groningen Frailty Index and the Frailty Index (computed with data extracted from the Electronic Medical Record) to the most frequently used Frailty Phenotype and Kihon checklist (2).
