Common Problems
Common Oral Problems
in Older Adults
Tooth Loss

Loss of teeth can result from decay or periodontal disease, affecting chewing and overall nutrition.

Dry Mouth

Xerostomia is common in older adults, often caused by medications, leading to increased cavity risk and discomfort in swallowing.

Gum Disease

Periodontal disease can progress with age, causing inflammation, tooth loss, and potential systemic health issues.

Root Caries

As gums start receding, roots become exposed, making them more susceptible to decay, particularly in older adults.

Oral Cancer

Seniors are at higher risk for oral cancer; regular screenings are much essential for early detection and treatment.

Denture Issues

Ill-fitting dentures can cause discomfort, sores, and difficulty eating, requiring adjustments for better function.
