Last week, we were happy to welcome students from the UNC School of Dentistry in Chapel Hill to Covenant Place for an informative presentation on Geriatric Dental Care. 🦷✨
The three dental students shared helpful tips on managing oral health as we age, including addressing dry mouth, tooth decay, periodontal disease, tooth loss, and caring for dental prosthetics. They also covered the importance of prevention—regular checkups, reducing plaque buildup, maintaining a healthy diet, and staying well hydrated.
The presentation wrapped up with a fun, interactive oral health game that kept residents engaged and smiling! Coffee and pastries were enjoyed by all in attendance ☕🥐
Thank you to these future dental professionals for educating and connecting with our residents—we loved having you!
