Decide if this is really needed. Sorry but my late mom kept scheduling cleanings and dental exams for my late dad with advanced dementia. I think the dentist intervened by politely suggesting that my mom seek basic oral hygiene care from AL where he resided.

Does she need work for comfort or eating? He doesn’t specialize in geriatrics but Alan helig is very gentle and conservative. If it’s just cosmetic I wouldn’t bother.

Medicare doesn’t offer dental care.

Any help in finding a dentist for an 85 year-old with Alzheimer's? We are in NOVA.

She lost her lower denture and hasn't been to the dentist in several years letting her dental coverage lapse.
