• 3 out of 4 adults over the age of 35 have some degree of gum disease. Make sure you do not skip your regular checkups.
• 65% of “boomers” with oral health problems determined to be an indication of more serious issues. Gum disease has been linked to many life-threatening conditions and its early stages can go unnoticed.
• Bacteria can seep under your silver mercury amalgam fillings and can cause tooth decay. Your dentist can replace those silver fillings, with new, tooth colored composite fillings.
This is an important time to understand your maturing smile. Did you know for the most part that losing your teeth during your golden years has nothing to do with aging and everything to do with gum disease? That same disease is linked to diabetes, cancer, and heart complications. But you not need a victim.
• As you’re getting older, receding gums can expose roots to cavities and decay.
• Some of the dental work in your mouth may be decades old thus greatly increasing the risk of decay setting in around the edges of old fillings or crowns.
• If you are missing teeth advanced restorative implants may be the solution for you. Today’s dental implants look, feel, and function like your natural teeth or better.
• There is no age limits on a fantastic, engaging smile. More and more “seasoned” citizens are keeping their teeth and beautifying their smiles with cosmetic veneers. Now you can too. It isn’t complicated and there is very little discomfort.
