title: Esthetic and functional reconstruction of the geriatric patient.
abstract: Esthetics is not only for the young. People at every age want to look their best and have a confident and beautiful smile. Generally speaking, restored senior citizens become very appreciative of the care they receive, refer others like themselves, and, most importantly, have a renewed self-worth and can continue to interact socially for many years.
