If you or a family member are searching for home dental care for seniors in Manhattan, The Hamptons, Long Island, or Queens then look no further! While we know that good oral hygiene is important at every age, many seniors are unable to access necessary dental care due to limited mobility.
As people age there are new or different dental concerns to be aware of especially when they have health problems and take medications. Some of the most common dental problems for seniors include:
- Dry mouth. Often times medication produces this side effect, however, it may be due to more serious health problems, and should be checked by a dentist.
- Root decay. When teeth are exposed to decay-causing acids, they cause root decay. As gum tissue recedes from the tooth, the roots become exposed.
- Gum disease. Plague is the main culprit of gum disease but tobacco products, poor fitting dentures and certain diseases can create additional problems.
