The Importance of Dental Care for Seniors

  • Seniors are at a higher risk for dental problems due to age-related factors such as dry mouth, reduced immune function, and medication side effects.
  • Poor oral health can lead to other health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections.
  • Regular dental check-ups and cleanings are crucial for maintaining oral health and preventing dental problems.
  • Seniors should pay special attention to their dental hygiene and follow good oral care practices at home.
