What is Periodontal Health in Dementia Patients about?
This systematic review examines the periodontal health status of individuals with dementia compared to those without, utilizing case-control studies. The findings indicate that individuals with dementia exhibit significantly poorer periodontal health, characterized by higher plaque index scores, bleeding on probing, and clinical attachment loss. The review concludes that there is a need for more rigorous studies and interventions to address the impact of periodontal health on dementia.
