Senior
Dental Care is Different
Our teeth and gums change as we get older, just like the
rest of our bodies. Many medications can cause a reduction
in saliva, for example. We offer simple products that can
help this condition. After years of plaque buildup, or
drinking coffee, tea, or soda, or using tobacco, teeth can
turn dark. We can discuss procedures that can combat these
problems. As fillings age, they can weaken or crack. Regular
check-ups make sure we keep track of the status of your
existing fillings. More seriously, gum disease and root
decay are often major problems for seniors. Daily cleaning
and good nutrition are critical for healthy gums. If your
gums redden or bleed or your teeth feel like they’ve
loosened, contact us immediately.
