As we age, it is common for our tooth enamel to weaken and our gums to recede, leaving our teeth vulnerable to tooth decay, gum disease, and many other dental issues. Furthermore, the roots of the teeth are not protected by enamel, and can become highly susceptible to cavities and infection when left exposed. Many older patients also take medications that can cause dry mouth as a side effect, leading to an even higher risk of cavities and discomfort. We encourage you to speak with Dr. Bruce Brumm about dental health products and medications that can help you reduce the risk of cavities.
When you visit the dental office of Bruce Brumm, our dentist and team will conduct your appointment at your pace, taking the time to understand your needs, preferences, and budget. We utilize the latest dental technology to evaluate your oral health and determine the best treatments for your smile, and we always include you in the decision-making process. Our modern dental care caters to comfort and peace of mind so that you can leave your appointment feeling positive about your experience.
Dental Services for Seniors
The importance of restorative dentistry increases as we age. Even patients who brushed and flossed with dedication their entire lives can still lose teeth to decay, disease, or injury. Old dental restorations may wear out, lose their snug fit, and need to be replaced. Dr. Bruce Brumm and our team aim to improve our patients’ smiles and quality of living with the following dental services:
- Dental bridges
- Dental crowns
- Dental fillings
- Dental implants
- Dental veneers
- Teeth whitening
