Oral healthcare is an integral part of overall health and
well-being, and it is a significant and increasing challenge as
people grow frail. Incidence of caries and gingivitis among
residents of long-term care facilities are on the rise, and daily
oral hygiene is often difficult for patients who are frail or in
need of assistance. "Oral Healthcare and the Frail Elder: A
Clinical Perspective" provides dentists, dental hygienists, and
other healthcare professionals with comprehensive, practical
instruction on managing the multifaceted oral healthcare needs of
frail elders. By discussing background information and relevant
literature, the book provides a holistic approach to clinical
issues such as oral pain, dry mouth, and periodontal disease.
Edited by experts in the field, "Oral Healthcare and the Frail
Elder" enhances clinical application with thorough reviews of
pertinent social and ethical issues, access to care issues, and the
practicalities for overcoming these in order to provide
high-quality oral healthcare to an aging population.
