Dry mouth and seniors
 

More seniors today in the Lake Oswego area have retained their own teeth, avoiding the trauma of removable dentures.  Many are on medications creating dryness of the mouth as a side effect.

Without the natural benefit of saliva to decrease bacterial action, Dr. Bowden and Dr. Osmunson are seeing an increase of cavities on the root surfaces of these patients. 

Anyone on a medication causing a dry mouth effect should be encouraged to visit Aesthetic Dentistry of Lake Oswego for regular dental cleanings.

For more information regarding dental problems of the elderly, please call our Aesthetic Dentistry of Lake Oswego at 503 675-7300.
