Caring for Our Seniors
Teeth show signs of wear from years of use, consumption of certain foods and tobacco products, and from aging. We recommend six-month check-ups to ensure we find dental-health problems in their early stages.
Gum disease and infected or damaged (tooth) roots are the most serious problems that are common among seniors. Finding and treating these problems in the early stages helps you stay healthy and looking good.
Fillings loosen and crack over time and create fractures in the tooth, so they may need to be replaced with newer filling material, which bonds more tightly to your teeth and minimizes the likelihood of tooth decay.
Some medications reduce the flow of saliva through the mouth, so we provide products that address this issue. We also use whitening techniques that return the brightness and whiteness of teeth that have been stained by caffeine or tobacco products.
Finally, eating nutritious food and brushing and flossing daily reduce your risk of dental problems. If your gums bleed or become inflamed, or if you have loose teeth, please contact us at once!
