Introduction to Geriatric Dentistry & Geriatric Oral Healthcare

The world is ‘’GRAYING’’ fast! About 10% of the population is more than 60 years old & will be 22% by 2050.Due to age related physical, physiological, psychosocial & orofacial problems of the Geriatric patients, knowledge of Geriatric Medicine & Dentistry is needed in order to provide optimum dental treatment.

General frailty & Oral frailty in particular is gaining importance in Geriatric healthcare.

The older adults - especially frail and dependent - report with complex medical and dental issues. Oral health forms an important part of general health and directly impacts quality of life of the older adults. Majority of oral conditions are preventable or treatable in the older adults, however, they do not receive regular dental care. An interdisciplinary approach & holistic care can “add life to their years”.

Hi My name is Mona. I just want to share my experience with the world on how I got my love back and saved my marriage… I was married for 7 years with 4 kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had fights and arguments almost every time… it got worse at a point that he filed for divorce… I tried my best to make him change his mind & stay with me cause I loved him with all my heart and didn’t want to lose him but everything just didn’t work out… he moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce… I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster Dr Zuma, who eventually helped me out… I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice… He did special prayers and cast a love spell on him. Within 24hours he called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma he had cost me, he moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our fourth child… I have introduced him to a lot of couples with relationship problems across the world and they have had good news… Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there needs it… You can contact him on [email protected] visit https://spiritualwork.mozellosite.com
