Geriatric Dentistry and Special Needs Care

Geriatric Dentistry and Special Needs Care provides individualized oral healthcare for older adults and patients with physical, developmental, cognitive, or emotional challenges. Aging may be associated with tooth loss, xerostomia, root caries, periodontal problems, increased oral cancer risk, medication-related effects, and other treatment complexities. Care therefore emphasizes comfort, function, prevention, and quality of life through coordinated and compassionate treatment planning. Special needs dentistry adapts communication, clinical techniques, equipment, and appointment strategies to individual abilities and limitations. Collaboration with caregivers and other healthcare professionals can further support safe, practical, and continuous oral care. Related topics also include Down syndrome.
