ABSTRACT

The number of older persons all over the world is increasing and it is a challenge for public health systems. A literature review was performed by using Medline data base of with the objective of improving the knowledge about oral diseases that affect the elderly. They are at risk of chronic diseases of the mouth, including oral infections (caries, periodontitis), tooth loss, benign mucosal lesions, and oral cancer. Xerostomia (caused by medications) and oral candidiasis represent other oral disorders that affect this population. The dentist may help these people to maintain good oral health by assessing risk, recognizing normal changes of this age, including different pathologies, and the solutions of oral problems for a better quality of life of this people.
