Prosthodontic and Nutritional Considerations in Geriatrics.

      Аннотация: Nutrition is the process of providing proper food elements for maintenance of health and growth. Nutrition includes digestion, absorption, assimilation and the actual use of nutrients by the cells of the body. Age alone is not a contraindication to complex prosthodontics treatment, patients if advanced age may still have many years of life ahead during which they will appreciate the esthetic and functional advantages of a restored dentition. There is a saying that “death enters through the mouth” we might also say that life and health and well being also enters through the mouth”.
