Senior smiles

Our needs change as we age, but maintaining a healthy smile should always be a priority. If you are caring for a loved one, it’s important to be aware of their specific oral health needs. Do they have dentures? When was their last dental exam? What is their dental hygiene routine? Older adults who receive daily oral health care are more likely to avoid dental disease and have a better quality of life.
