Older people are living longer, keeping their teeth for longer but increasingly facing diseases associated with ageing, including dementia. The ability of older people to maintain good oral health, and the ability of dental professionals to maintain their heavily restored dentitions, presents a challenge in planning services for the future. There needs to be a focus on personal prevention for those who will move into old age over the next 20 years. We must also develop services which address the complexity of delivering professional prevention and treatment to those who need to be supported in their later years.

In this paper we argue for the aggressive management of voice disorders. Aggressive management includes early identification, prevention, and treatment of voice disorders. The argument for aggressive management is supported by current incidence trends, laryngologists' expectations, and the benefits of prevention programs.
