People in the United Kingdom are living for longer and taking their natural dentitions with them into old age. If the dental profession as a whole is to be prepared to support the care of older people, a clear understanding of what it is to be old will be needed. But with much talk of this heavy metal generation having complex restorative needs, the technical aspects of care are being emphasised. This paper suggests that there may be more basic needs to be addressed.
英国人民的寿命越来越长，并且带着他们的天然牙进入老年。如果整个牙科行业都要准备好支持老年人的护理，就需要清楚地了解什么是老年人。但是，由于有很多人谈论这个重金属一代有复杂的修复需求，所以护理的技术方面被强调了。本文认为，可能还有更基本的需求需要解决。
