Why Seniors Need Specialized Dental Care

  • As people age, they may experience a variety of oral health issues, including gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss.
  • Seniors are more likely to have chronic health conditions that can impact their oral health, such as diabetes, heart disease, and arthritis.
  • Medications commonly used by seniors can also affect their oral health, causing dry mouth or other side effects.
  • Specialized dental care is necessary to address these unique oral health concerns and ensure that seniors maintain good oral hygiene.
