Dental Care For Seniors...
The
good habits of effective daily brushing, and proper diet will help the
aging person adapt to changing conditions. Reduced salivary flow and
addition of medications will affect oral health dramatically.
In response to many medications, a person may develop dry mouth. Flow of
saliva can be reduced by a medical disorder or be a side effect of
antihistamine, decongestants, pain killers or diuretics, and other
medication. Saliva is useful to lubricate, wash away plaque, and
neutralize the acid produced by plaque.
For more information regarding dental problems of the elderly, please
call our office.
