Forsyth for Life! will be providing information and resources to aging adults and seniors through its Wisdom Tooth Foundation.
This is the fastest growing population in the country. Seniors have unique oral health needs. Some of the critical topics and questions for this age group and their caregivers include:
- What every patient should know about their mouth
- Caring for the teeth of your aging loved ones
- New research in diabetes and oral health connections
- Why oral health impacts systemic health (looking at inflammation, co-morbidity and infection)
- Over 400 prescription drugs cause dry mouth; how can you address these problems?
- Effects of poor oral health on senior’s nutritional status, and how to address
- Arthritis (which creates motor skill issues) and tooth care
- Osteoporosis and oral health
- Dentures, nutrition and whole body health
- Prevention for diabetes and senior citizens
