As we age, everyday wear and tear can take a toll on our bodies, including our teeth. Teeth and gums can also experience problems and complications related to aging, especially if we do not care for them properly when we’re younger. There is a misconception that aging will result in tooth loss, but that does not have to be the case. We have many older patients who still have all of their original teeth.
Visit Our Office Regularly
The best way to ensure optimal oral health is to maintain regular oral hygiene examination appointments at our office. During these visits, we check your teeth and gums and make any recommendations necessary. Certain complications, such as gum disease, tooth decay, and dry mouth, are common as we age. The earlier we find and treat complications, the greater the chance a patient will keep their original teeth for their entire life.
It’s Never Too Late to Improve Your Smile
We encourage all our patients, regardless of age, to prioritize oral health. One of the best aspects of modern dentistry is that we can fix all kinds of oral health problems. We offer preventative, restorative, and cosmetic dental treatments to make any type of change a patient needs or desires. For uncomfortable or malfunctioning dental hardware, such as dentures, we encourage patients to contact our office so we can assess the issue and update the hardware if needed. There is no need to experience discomfort when we have many options to address any kind of issue.
