Senior Smiles: Oral Health Challenges and Solutions for the Aging Population
At our clinic, we prioritize patient comfort and strive to create a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. We understand that many people experience anxiety or discomfort when visiting the dentist, which is why we offer a variety of sedation options to help you feel more at ease during your appointment.
Our clinic is conveniently located in a modern and accessible building, with ample parking available for our patients. We also offer flexible scheduling options to accommodate your busy lifestyle.
1. Sugary Candy: Sugary candy, such as lollipops, gummies, and hard candies, can stick to your teeth and promote the growth of bacteria that causes cavities. Instead, opt for sugar-free gum or dark chocolate, which contains less sugar and may even contain cavity-fighting compounds.
2. Soda: Soda is loaded with sugar and acid, which can erode your tooth enamel and lead to cavities. Instead, drink water or unsweetened tea to keep your teeth healthy.
3. Sports Drinks: Sports drinks are often loaded with sugar and acid, which can be just as damaging to your teeth as soda. Instead, drink water or coconut water, which contains natural electrolytes that can help replenish your body after a workout.
