Safe and Professional Home Dental Care for the Elderly: Our Risk-Led Approach By Dr Amir Mostofi DDS, Dip. (Ortho.) MSc (Implant.)

At the Clinic for Implant & Orthodontic Dentistry in Worthing, we specialise in providing high-quality domiciliary dental care to patients in the comfort of their own homes. Whether due to age, frailty, dementia, or physical disability, many individuals find it difficult or impossible to attend a traditional dental practice — and that’s where our experienced mobile team steps in.

Safety is at the heart of everything we do. Before each visit, we carry out a comprehensive risk assessment tailored to the patient’s medical history, medication use, cognitive ability, and home environment. This allows us to plan treatments that are both safe and effective, with all necessary precautions in place.

Our team is skilled in managing dental care for elderly and vulnerable patients, including those with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, or multiple health conditions. From adjusting treatment techniques to reviewing medications and ensuring full aftercare support, we deliver care with compassion and clinical excellence.

If you or a loved one could benefit from home dental care for the elderly, contact us today to find out how we can help. Our mobile dentist service covers Worthing and surrounding areas across Sussex.
