"As dementia incidence rises, dental teams increasingly face the oral care challenges of affected individuals. Future trends suggest that older adults will retain their natural teeth longer and demand more dental care. People with dementia encounter the same oral health issues as the general population, but their cognitive and functional impairments exacerbate these problems. The ability to perform oral hygiene and daily activities often diminishes, impacting their oral health. The dental team's understanding of dementia significantly affects the quality of care provided. Poor oral health in dementia patients can adversely affect diet, nutrition, comfort, cognition, behavior, quality of life, and life expectancy. Notably, it raises the risk of aspiration pneumonia due to decayed teeth and periodontal disease. Maintaining good oral health can improve life quality and reduce this risk. As Alzheimer's disease progresses, oral health typically declines, leading to periodontal disease, increased decay, and other dental issues. These include difficulties with dentures and performing oral hygiene. Therefore, an oral health risk assessment is crucial for those with impairments or disabilities affecting oral health."
