"If we are treating older patients under facing missing teeth, we don't need to just think about what's going on today. We need to think about what's going on five, 10 years from now, how well this patient is going to be able to maintain this going forward. " - Dr. Gerry McKenna Hello! Welcome to the Aging Pearls Podcast, where we're dedicated to providing dental pearls for all those concerned with the oral care needs of our aging population.

Rather than thinking every missing two for this patient must be replaced, particularly if the option is a removable partial denture.” - Dr. Gerry McKenna Resources: Oral Health and Aging Textbook Important papers: An RCT of atraumatic restorative treatment for older adults: 5 year results C da Mata, G McKenna, L Anweigi, M Hayes, M Cronin, N Woods, D O'Mahony, P F Allen Risk indicators associated with root caries in independently living older adults Martina Hayes, Cristiane Da Mata, Margaret Cole, Gerald McKenna, Francis Burke, Patrick Finbarr Allen Cost-effectiveness of ART restorations in elderly adults: a randomized clinical trial Cristiane da Mata, Patrick F Allen, Michael Cronin, Denis O'Mahony, Gerald McKenna, Noel Woods Knowledge transfer on the use of Atraumatic Restorative Treatment: A mixed-methods study: Knowledge transfer on the use of ART Cristiane da Mata, Gerry McKenna, Martina Hayes Impact of oral rehabilitation on the quality of life of partially dentate elders in a randomised controlled clinical trial: 2 year follow-up Gerald McKenna, Patrick Finbarr Allen, Martina Hayes, Cristiane DaMata, Ciaran Moore, Michael Cronin ...
