title: The changing face of geriatric dental care.
abstract: Just because a patient has reached a certain age does not necessarily mean he or she requires specific treatments. This will vary depending upon the patient's general history, his or her oral hygiene, general health and diet. It is important to avoid stereotyping seniors: they all have different medical backgrounds, different lifestyles and different needs.
