%X Correlation between tooth loss and cognitive and memory function in elderly residents at Social Home Tresna Werdha (PTSW) Senjarawi, Bandung City. Tooth loss is reported to be linked with Alzheimer¡¯s disease and dementia. This study aimed to identify the correlation between tooth loss, cognitive and memory functions examined using a MMSE (mini-mental state examination) test to the elderly residents at Panti Sosial Tresna Wreda (PSTW) Senjarawi, Bandung. The research method used cross sectional design. The sampling was selected using concecutive sampling technique. The sample was selected according to the inclusion criteria including physical health (marked by their ability to perform daily activities independently) and ability to communicate well, at least 60 years of age, and independent. The results of the examination on 19 elderly people consisting of 12 females and 7 males showed that the research subjects fall in the category of having a decline in their cognitive and memory function, that is at the average age (75.89; 76.32), education level of elementary school (66.7%; 77.8%), female (41.7%; 66.7%), physical activity in the form of light exercise (50%; 66.7%) and having hypertension (58.3%; 75%), having musculoskeletal disorder (50%; 75%). Pearson chi-square test showed that there is no signi£¿cant correlation between tooth loss and cognitive function p = 1.318 (p > 0.05). Similarly, Pearson chi-square test of p = 0.333 (p> 0.05) indicates that there is signi£¿cant correlation between tooth loss and memory function. It can be concluded that there is a tendency of a decline in both cognitive function and memory function in tooth loss, but this is not evident statistically. Future research involving a larger number of samples is needed to obtain homogeneous and well-distributed data. ABSTRAK Kehilangan gigi dilaporkan berhubungan dengan penyakit Alzheimer dan demensia.
