Geriatric Dental Aid Trifold Brochure
Geriatric Dental Aid Trifold Brochure
While attending the Dental Assisting Program at IUSD, I worked with my professor, Michelle Priest, to create a pamphlet for geriatric patients that displays tools they can use to improve their dental health. This pamphlet could theoretically be given to patients 65+ in clinic that seem to be struggling with dexterity issues.

This is a flat lay of the trifold brochure created to demonstrate geriatric dental aids. It describes a tool, why it would be needed, and how to use it.Â

This is the other side of the trifold brochure. It describes another tool that geriatric patients can utalize, how they could make it, and how they could use it.

Reflection
This was my first entirely self created honors project. My professor gave me full creative freedom on both the type of project and the contents. I utilized Canva to create the layout of this brochure. I was able to learn different techniques and methods to have the best layout. In creating this pamphlet, I learned how to utilize the research databases offered by IU Indianapolis. This project laid down the fundamentals for me to later be able to research topics while in the Dental Hygiene program. If I were to recreate this project today, I would have a better selection of sources. For example, I would make sure that my articles are peer-reviewed. I also would simplify the language and lessen the word count. With the geriatric audience in mind, I believe that I used the correct amount of photos and font size.
