What Is Geriatric Dentistry?

Geriatric Dentistry, or Dentistry for Senior Citizens, focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of dental issues that commonly occur with age. As people live longer and retain their teeth for more years, age-related concerns like tooth decay, gum disease, dry mouth, and tooth mobility become increasingly common. With a dedicated Geriatric Dentist in Bandra, seniors receive specialized care tailored to their changing oral health needs, ensuring comfort, function, and long-term wellbeing.

Tooth Decay and Cavities

As we age, the enamel naturally wears down, and conditions like dry mouth and gum recession increase the risk of tooth decay. With the guidance of an experienced Geriatric Dentist in Bandra, seniors can receive timely treatment to prevent complications and maintain long-term oral health.

Treatment Options:

Dental Fillings (for minor cavities)
Root Canal Therapy (for deeper decay)
Dental Crowns (for structural reinforcement)
Partial or Full Dentures (for multiple missing teeth)
Dental Implants (for permanent tooth replacement)

Benefits:

Preserves natural teeth wherever possible
Prevents spread of decay to adjacent teeth

Gum Disease (Gingivitis & Periodontitis)

Gum problems are among the most prevalent oral health concerns in older adults. Inflammation (gingivitis) and bone loss (periodontitis) can lead to tooth mobility and, if left untreated, eventual tooth loss. With a trusted Geriatric Dentist in Bandra, seniors receive timely diagnosis and customized care to manage gum infections effectively.

Treatment Options:

Professional Cleaning & Scaling
Root Planing (deep cleaning)
Laser Gum Therapy
Surgical Correction in advanced cases

Benefits:

Preserves natural teeth wherever possible

Loose Teeth and Tooth Mobility

Loose teeth are often caused by bone loss or advanced gum disease. As a dedicated Geriatric Dentist in Bandra, we offer stabilizing and restorative options to preserve remaining teeth and improve overall function for senior patients.

Treatment Options:

Splinting of loose teeth
Periodontal treatment to control infection
Crowns or Bridges to support weakened teeth
Implants or Dentures if replacement is necessary

Restores bite function
Prevents tooth loss progression
Improves overall comfort while eating and speaking

Tooth Replacement (Dentures & Implants)

FAQ

Aging increases the risk of gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss — timely care maintains comfort and function.

At least twice a year, or more frequently if there are ongoing dental or gum concerns.

Depending on severity — splinting, gum therapy, or replacement with implants/dentures can be done.

Modern dentures are lightweight, well-fitted, and designed for maximum comfort.

We recommend saliva substitutes, hydration, and gentle oral care products to relieve discomfort.
