Fully updated reference to clinical knowledge and strategies for effective oral healthcare in frail older adults

Taking an evidence-based approach, with theoretical and clinical knowledge underpinned by the literature, Oral Healthcare and the Frail Elder provides a comprehensive reference to management strategies for dental diseases as noncommunicable diseases in older populations. The book presents a global perspective with current guidance for clinicians, addressing the particular challenges of providing dental care for people who are confronting frailty in old age. Reflecting the numerous developments in the discipline since the previous edition was published, this Second Edition has been thoroughly updated throughout with 15 new chapters.

The first section covers background information, including demographics, social considerations, and factors affecting oral health in this population. The second half of the book is devoted to clinical management strategies.

Some of the new topics discussed in this edition of Oral Healthcare and the Frail Elder include:


  • Theories and significance of oral health in frailty and oral health-related quality of life, and the influence of the life-course on oral health

  • How sugar, tobacco, and alcohol initiate and sustain oral diseases, as with other noncommunicable diseases, into old age

  • Mitigation of dental caries, periodontitis, gingivitis, mucositis, and other non-communicable diseases of the mouth

  • Infection control, communications and tele-dentistry, mobile dental services, and strategies to appraise the usefulness of community-based oral healthcare programs


With an emphasis on population and public health in the context of non-communicable disease, the Second Edition of Oral Healthcare and the Frail Elder is an important resource for clinicians dealing with the geriatric population, including dentists, dental hygienists, dental therapists, denturists and dental technicians, nurses, and geriatricians.
