As soon as people go to age, in addition to the aging of the body, oral problems follow.
Common oral diseases of the elderly
In addition to periodontal diseases of the elderly, there are dental dental diseases. After the gum tissue retracts after suffering from the periodontal disease, the root of the tooth will be exposed to the mouth. The difference between the crown and the roots is that the surface of the crown has a very hard glaze, which has a strong resistance to caries and bacteria. The surface of the teeth is tooth bone. Due to the exposure of the root of the tooth, the food is embedded inside, and the root caries will appear.
The second common problem is lack of teeth. Some elderly people feel that it doesn't matter if they lose a few teeth. They do not set up dentures in time when they fall off their rear teeth. They will be loosened soon, and they will soon increase the symptoms of the periodontal period.
What should the elderly face the problem of teeth?
There are two main ways, the first activity is repaired, wearing dental dentures. The second fixed repair, that is, dental implants. Before the elderly are repaired, periodontal treatment must be performed. If periodontal treatment is not performed, periodontitis may occur on the planting body, natural teeth will fall off, and the implant will fall off.
Problems that need to be paid attention to in the treatment of tooth
Experts emphasized that the elderly should pay attention to two issues. The first is whether the elderly have systemic diseases, such as blood sugar, blood pressure and other diseases. The second is the situation of medication. If you take anticoagulant drugs, you must explain to the doctor. There are also whether there are shift plants in the body, such as brackets, joint replacement, and even organ transplantation.
