Successful periodontal treatment for the elderly.

The demographic reality of a rapidly growing elderly population segment presents the practicing dentist with certain imperatives and challenges. Familiarity with the healthy aging process and common medical conditions of the aged is becoming increasingly essential. Customized treatment plans and modifications in techniques and home care aids require flexibility and creativity. In addition, it should not be overlooked that this demographic reality also presents the practicing dentist with new opportunities for practice-building as well as personal and professional satisfaction.

Periodontal considerations in preparation for fixed and removable prosthodontics.

This article has presented many of the newer concepts and techniques that have been developed to treat a problem that has been of major concern to the prosthodontist: the problem of favorable periodontal support and poor or deformed edentulous ridges. In the past, dentists were not aware, or did not believe, that it was possible to reconstruct ridge deformities, and they resorted to prosthetic solutions to solve the problems of tissue reconstruction, function, and aesthetics. New procedures and concepts permit us to extend the range of therapy and hope we are able to offer our patients. It is probably true that prosthodontists are more sensitive to the emotional concerns and needs of patients that have sustained ridge-jaw deformities. These patients bear deep emotional scars. They feel cast apart from "normal" society. Successful treatment for these patients not only restores their deformed ridge and dentition, it helps to erase the mental scars and emotional trauma these patients have had to accept. These procedures enable us to restore their sense of self-confidence and dignity.
