Many older adults taking multiple medications experience reduced saliva flow, increasing their risk of rapid tooth decay, gum disease, and oral infections. From a geriatric dental care perspective in Bangalore, dry mouth is more than a minor discomfort—it can affect nutrition, speech, denture comfort, and overall quality of life. This article explores how multiple medications contribute to xerostomia, why seniors are especially vulnerable to accelerated decay, and what families and caregivers can do to manage it. Learn how early diagnosis, medication review, preventive dental care, and coordinated treatment can help seniors in Bangalore protect their oral health and maintain long-term well-being.
