Not only do our bodies change as we age, but so do our teeth and gums. There are years of wear and tear on our teeth that can weaken or crack fillings; the residue from tobacco, tea, or coffee consumption darkens teeth; and possible plaque build-up can lead to bigger health problems. If you take certain medications on a regular basis your saliva flow may be greatly reduced which affects the health of your teeth. We have products to help this side effect. It is important to have regular check-ups to ensure gum disease or root decay has not formed. We advise our seniors if their teeth bleed easily from brushing or flossing or start to loosen, to contact us immediately.
