Caring For Your Elderly Relatives Teeth

As the care needs of your loved one or relative change, often looking after their oral health can sometimes feel like an after thought.

The good news is that looking after your relative’s teeth is simple.

Regular tooth brushing (twice daily for two minutes) and reducing where possible sweet drinks and sugary snacks will help slow down or prevent tooth decay.

An electric toothbrush, which uses little or no manual movement is often effective and can be purchased inexpensively.

Denture wearers should also have their dentures cleaned regularly. A simple clean with a toothbrush and running water works well.

In all cases, regular visits by a dentist who will check overall dental health and check for signs of oral cancer is advised.

They will, where required, also provide oral hygiene services (cleaning of teeth), may prescribe high-fluoride toothpaste and provide the application of fluoride paste to help keep teeth strong.

Dental Care At Home provides dental care services for residents in care homes. If you are unsure about your relative’s oral health in their care setting, please speak to the care home in the first instance.
