Researchers are working to adapt the Oral Assessment Sheet (OAS)—a structured tool that evaluates lips, tongue, mouth tissues, saliva, swallowing, and voice—into Turkish. This study will test whether the Turkish version works just as well as the original tool at measuring oral health. The goal is to create a reliable assessment tool that Turkish-speaking healthcare providers and researchers can use in their clinics and studies.
Oral health problems are common and important to catch early, especially in older adults or people in hospitals. The original English version of this assessment tool has been helpful worldwide, but it hasn't been formally translated and tested for use in Turkish healthcare settings. This study will fill that gap.

You will visit the study site and undergo an oral assessment using the Turkish version of the assessment tool. A healthcare provider will examine your mouth, lips, tongue, and throat, and evaluate your swallowing and voice. The assessment is brief and non-invasive—no needles or painful procedures. The researchers will use your results to check whether the Turkish version of the tool is accurate and reliable for clinical use.
