Abstract: Development of oral functions and eating behavior Keyword : breast-feeding, baby-led weaning, finger food キーワード： 母乳栄養，赤ちゃん主導の離乳， フィ ンガーフー ド It has been seven years since developmental insufficiency of oral function (DIOF) was first listed under Japanese universal health care coverage.Although we dental healthcare professionals have started to tackle this issue and support in clinical settings is gradually becoming more common, we do not feel that the oral functions of children have improved.As we do not yet have a clear way of measuring and evaluating oral functions, it is difficult to tell whether they are improving or deteriorating, but this is precisely why it is essential to take a scientific approach in this field in the future.To this end, this paper first lays out the current evidence on breastfeeding support and weaning support which are related to the development of oral function and eating behavior in pursuit of better childcare support.口腔機能発達不全症が保険収載されて 7 年が経つ．私たち歯科医療従事者がこの問題に取り組み始め，臨床現場 での支援が少しずつ浸透してきているが，実際に子どもたちの口腔機能が向上してきているかといえば，その実感 はあまりない．口腔機能を何をもって評価し比較するかといったことも定まらない中であるから，実際に改善して いるか悪化しているかを捉えることも難しいが，だからこそ科学的根拠に基づいてこの分野で対応することは今後 必須である．そのためにも本稿では，まず口腔機能の育成と食行動の発達に関連する母乳育児支援，離乳食支援に ついて現在得られる根拠を整理し，子育て支援へと繋げていきたい． 【 顎 咬 合 誌 4 4 ( 3 ): 3 0 7 -314 ，2 0 2 5 】
