If you or your loved one have dementia, it seems difficult to maintain good oral hygiene.
Although some people with dementia can brush their teeth or take care of their dentures without help, many people need extra help to complete these important tasks.
When you care for a lover with dementia or Alzheimer's, you should know the following points.
If your care needs to help you eat, they may also need help with oral hygiene. If you are not sure how to help, ask the dentist to show you how to brush your teeth properly or how to take care of their dentures.
