Seniors need to see a dentist regularly for a check-up and cleaning. And it’s a good idea to bring some information to share with your dentist. The American Dental Association advises that you bring: Health Tips * A written list of your over-the-counter and prescription medications, supplements, herbs and vitamins. * A complete list of allergies and other medical conditions. * The names and contact info of all of healthcare providers. * Information for an emergency contact, in case of a serious medical problem. * Insurance cards for any dental plan or Medicare. * Any partials or dentures, even if you don’t wear them.
