“I hate going to the dentist, but my teeth were looking worse with age and I knew I needed help. I came to Dr. Kamboh after a friend referred me and haven’t looked back. Dr. Kamboh helped my teeth look better and brighter, and my gums are healthy now too. He always takes his time explaining his recommendations for treatment. I really love Dr. Kamboh and the entire team at Lansdowne Dental Associates.”

Bobbie, Lansdowne, VA

Bobbie’s teeth were healthy, but they took on a grayish appearance in the last few years, and she hadn’t been keeping up with her regular dental appointments. “Going to the dentist always felt like a hassle, and I didn’t always feel like my previous dentist gave me the time and attention I needed during my appointments,” she says.

When Bobbie noticed her smile looked dull in recent photos, she knew it was time to make an appointment. When she came in to see Dr. Kamboh, she was surprised that her teeth didn’t have any cavities, but were deeply stained.

Bobbie’s gums also showed evidence of gum disease, which Dr. Kamboh and his team were able to reverse with a deep cleaning. Now, Bobbie’s teeth are whiter and her gums are healthy. “It’s amazing how much of a difference a simple cleaning can make. I appreciate Dr. Kamboh’s kindness and attention, and I’ll definitely be coming back to maintain this look.”

At Lansdowne Dental Associates, we understand just how important your oral care is as you age. We are mindful not only of any medical concerns or existing conditions you may have, but also that seniors are more at risk for oral health issues as they age, such as tooth loss, gum disease, and dry mouth.

Common FAQs on Dental Care for Seniors

How often should elderly have their teeth cleaned?

The minimum number of dental visits older adults should schedule each year are the same as everyone else-at least once every six months. This level of frequency allows for tartar removal and cleaning to prevent issues like gum disease and decay.

Should a 70 year old get dental implants?

Luckily, dental implants are just as effective and long-lasting in older age. Dental implants often change older people’s lives for the better, giving them improved physical health and more confidence. No age is too old for dental implants.

Why do teeth break in elderly?

Periodontal disease, characterized by receding gums, wobbly teeth, and deterioration of the jawbone, is the primary culprit in tooth loss among older adults. It gets started when plaque builds up in the shallow trough between the tooth and the gum.
