Oral health is important for everyone, including denture wearers. Gum disease, dental decay, and tooth loss are some of the main problems that denture wearers experience, so it is important to take good care of your gums, any remaining natural teeth, and to keep your partial or complete denture(s) clean and properly fitted! If gums, natural teeth, partials, and complete dentures are not cleaned properly, you are likely to experience a build-up of plaque, leading to bad breath, cavities, gum disease and further tooth loss. Denturists and dental hygienists play an integral role in the maintenance of your oral health. Be sure to book an appointment today.

Staying Social with Hearing Loss
For someone with hearing loss, social situations are challenging. Help improve communication with them by following these simple tips: • Gain their attention before you begin talking. • Speak naturally & don’t shout. Speak distinctly, at a normal rate, using pauses to give the person time to process speech. • Keep your hands away from your face while talking. • Avoid sudden changes of topic. And if the subject is changed, tell them what you are talking about now. • Seat them where they can see as many faces as possible. • Check in. If you think your listener may not be following, convey the information again in shorter, clearer sentences.

Tips from Your Physiotherapist
Spring is in the air and summer is right around the corner! It is the time to start planting flowers, veggies, and fruit. Planting and digging in your garden require you to be on the ground and mostly on your knees. Simply using a knee cushion will help take the hard tension off your knees and legs and keep the strain off your back. Always try to take breaks and stand up to give your back a stretch. This will straighten up your spine and prevent your body from being sore and tight the next day. Most importantly, enjoy the sun!

Socializing Boosts Senior Health
Social interactions are vital for seniors’ mental and emotional well-being. Post-retirement, many seniors face increased loneliness, which can lead to depression and cognitive decline. Regular social activities, such as participating in community clubs or online groups, help maintain mental sharpness and reduce feelings of isolation. These engagements are not only enjoyable but are crucial in preventing conditions like Alzheimer’s. For seniors with mobility issues, online platforms provide a crucial link to the wider community, ensuring they remain actively connected.

Keep Your Lymphatic System Flowing
Just like our bowels, the lymphatic system is considered a garbage disposal system of the body. It picks up the fluids from between the cells, brings it into nodes for filtering and cleansing. Old fluids need to move and if they don’t then new nourishing fluids can’t get to the cellular level. Improving the environment of your cells is a great place to start. Lymph nodes hold immune cells. When dead cells, microbes, or toxins enter the lymph nodes, these specialized cells go to work. Seek out our Vetheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage / BodyTalk to get these systems operating more efficiently.
