Geriatric Dentistry

GERIATIC DENTISTRY

Although all developments in medicine in recent years reduce the negative effects of aging, aging is inevitable. Every age has its own beauty. You will live the beauty of aging better by making life more comfortable.

If medical problems are added to these negative effects, the oral comfort of individuals is significantly affected. The side effects of some medications used are quite pronounced in our mouths (such as hypertension medications, etc.). Some systemic diseases, such as diabetes, directly affect the mouth in a negative way.

During this whole process, a decrease in saliva production is inevitable. If there is also a decrease in the number of teeth for various reasons during this period, the use of removable dentures can cause technical and psychological problems. Although the regular dental visits of the individual increase the success in this transitional period, difficulties can be experienced due to the situations mentioned above. It is often not possible to talk about aesthetics.

Geriatric dentistry is a process carried out in collaboration with the patient’s own doctor. A method and medication treatment model suitable for the diseases that the patient has due to old age should be designed in collaboration with a medical doctor. Oral health and aesthetics are not only a medical contribution and comfort, but also a psychological need.
