]]> As we age, a lot of things change, and that includes your oral health. It seems many senior citizens change their oral health habits as they get older, and the lack of good dental health causes them to have other issues as a result of neglect of their teeth and gums. That’s where Las Vegas senior dentistry at the office of Moore Family Dentistry comes into play.

If you’re a senior citizen, you may not be getting cavities any more, but you may have other problems associated with aging. Gingivitis or other gum diseases may result in the loss of teeth. Left untreated, gum disease can cause problems throughout your body, not just in your mouth. You may not realize it, but many heart and lung problems stem from the bacteria that grows in your mouth. Bacteria that turns into an infection can spread through your body and cause countless problems. The same goes for plaque that builds up on your teeth. If you have plaque on your teeth, chances are you have plaque in the lining of your arteries too.

When you visit Moore Family Dentistry for a Las Vegas senior dentistry checkup, our experienced staff will take x-rays to see if you have any tooth decay. Our dental hygienist will clean your teeth and make sure you don’t have any signs of periodontal disease. One of our experienced local dentists will make sure your teeth and gums are in the best shape they can be.

Everyone in our Las Vegas dental office will be happy to help with a Las Vegas senior dentistry checkup, but you need to take action and make an appointment. Moore Family Dentistry has two convenient locations in Las Vegas. Call 702-791-1010 for our central location near Maryland Parkway and Sahara or call 702-254-6700 for our Summerlin office. We look forward to taking care of your dental needs for your entire life.
