Seniors—Don't Wait until It Hurts!

Maybe you have financial constraints. Or transportation can be a problem. Or maybe it's just not as easy to get around as it used to be. But it's very likely that you just don't get to the dentist as often as you should. And that can cause problems with your oral health that could cost you much more time and money later on.

Check out the symptoms below. If you experience even one of them, see a dentist as soon as you can and tell him about the problems you're having.

  • lumps or sores inside your mouth


  • tooth or mouth pain


  • difficulty eating


  • changing the foods you eat to avoid discomfort


  • dry mouth


    • Regular visits to your dentist can prevent decay and resultant tooth loss, jawbone loss, infections and even oral cancer.

    Good oral health helps to keep your entire body healthier. So remember to see your dentist twice a year, if you can. You're worth it!
