Abstract

Age-related oral changes are seen in the oral hard and soft tissues as well as in bone, the temporomandibular joints and the oral mucosa. As older patients retain their natural teeth for longer, the clinical picture consists of normal physiological age changes in combination with pathological and iatrogenic effects. With an ageing population retaining more of its natural teeth for longer, dental professionals should expect to observe oral age changes more frequently.
