Dental treatment is changing to oral health care, integrating curative treatment and care. This development is based on the present state of oral health of elderly people. In the future, elderly persons are expected to receive adequate oral health care. This requires gerodontic knowledge and skills, as most oral health problems of elderly persons are chronical and related to ageing processes. For about 25% of elderly people substantially adapted oral health care is needed. This geriatric oral health care can be best provided in collaboration between dentists, dental hygienists and other careproviders. This procedure is already common practice in the care for the chronically ill. Then oral health care will become more than care for oral health.

Oral health encompasses dentistry and is broader in concept. Dentistry alone appears insufficient to ensure oral health for the population at large. Troubling disparities in oral health status and access to care have been documented. The segment of the population that has little or no access to care is growing; aging baby‐boomers are adding to this problem. As suggested in Oral Health in America: A Report of the Surgeon General, partnerships and collaboration are essential to improving oral health. The ethics of dental practice and the profession are being called into question. Who will provide the necessary leadership to address and resolve these issues, so that oral health is attainable by all?
