Common oral health challenges that seniors may face:
Gum Disease (Gingivitis & Periodontitis): A silent disease process that can lead to tooth loss if untreated. Periodontitis negatively impacts heart health, pregnant mom and baby health, diabetes control and exacerbates other health conditions.
Dry Mouth (Xerostomia): Often caused by common medications, chemotherapy and radiation cancer treatments, a reduction of salivary flow dramatically increases tooth decay risk.
Oral Cancer: Regular screenings are vital as the risk increases with age. If detected early, low morbidity and mortality. If caught in an advanced stage, statistics show that one person dies per hour in the US of oral cancer.
Landry Family Dentistry’s comprehensive services cater to the entire family, offering a full range of dental care options, from dental cleanings and oral cancer screenings to protective same-day crowns, extractions and dental implants, clear orthodontic aligners, dental veneers and aesthetic bonding, teeth whitening, and other services. Their commitment to patient comfort and satisfaction is evident, with over 490 five-star reviews. Patients appreciate Dr. Landry’s gentle approach and the warmth of his team.
Dr. Landry graduated from The Ohio State University in 2009 as the Professional Student of the Year Award recipient from all dental, medical, pharmacy, optometry, veterinary, and law students. In 2019, Dr. Landry earned Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry, which less than 2% of dentists achieve.
