In the recent past, these elderly  persons used dental care services infrequently,  because they were edentulous. A ''new elderly'' consumer group is emerging, which  can be characterized by its relatively higher  education status, income levels and the retention  of at least some natural teeth.  These dentate elderly consumers tend to utilize  dental care in patterns similar to those of younger  dentate age groups.  Even when faced with bone loss through periodontal  disease, caries and unresolved periapical  pathology, many of these individuals will no longer  accept the simple solutions of the past, such as  the extraction of their remaining natural dentition  and construction of complete dentures.  Appropriate care requires a careful assessment of  each patient''s sociodemographic and health status  along with treatment planning developed within the  context of each person''s functional and health  status.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838393148\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDental Prosthetics For The Elderly\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838393148","offer_id":39499084529757,"sku":"9783838393148","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/92c680f2-058a-4fc9-9124-3d3d1d5f449b.jpg?v=1769667991","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/geriatric-considerations-in-prosthetic-dentistry-von-puneet-anand-und-shalya-anand","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
