Geriatric Dentistry

Our dental needs change at every stage of life and this is especially true for Seniors. As you enter your golden years, new concerns can arise.

What is geriatric dentistry?

Geriatric dentistry is the delivery of dental care to older individuals who may require diagnosis, treatment and prevention of dental problems associated with age-related diseases. The philosophy of geriatric dentistry is to treat patients according to their needs and comfort rather than the conventional treatment plan.

Rationale for geriatric dentistry

  • Older patients are often on medications which increases the risk of drug interactions and adverse reactions affecting the oral health.
  • Older patients with age- related disorders may require extra care when it comes to diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • Reduced production of saliva due to old- age and systematic diseases leads to increase incidence of dental caries and other oral health issues which can affect the quality of life of older people.
