A dentist's role: prevention of snoring at temporary refuges for victims of the East Japan earthquake and the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident on March 11, 2011.

摘要

As a Japanese dentist, I (ST) would like to express my sincere thanks for all of the heartfelt messages and warm encouragement from all over the world after the recent Japanese earthquake, tsunami, and accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. The people of Japan greatly appreciate the strong support received from many countries. On March 11, I was at my office in Yoyogi, Tokyo throughout the afternoon. At 2:46 p.m., I felt a small earthquake. However, I quickly became slightly scared because it did not stop soon.
