Senior Dental Care

Addressing the Special Needs of Seniors

As we age, we begin to notice changes to our bodies and smiles. Our teeth are not as dazzling as they once were. Tobacco and caffeine consumption often darken our tooth color. Fillings may become loose and need to be replaced before decay sets in. Certain medications may result in reduced saliva and a dry mouth. We can keep on top of any of these problems with regular check-ups. Gum disease and root decay are frequent problems for seniors, and it is important to take care of these conditions in the earliest stages. We advise to continue or return to good nutrition and dental hygiene to help keep your gums in good condition.
