This book presents a comprehensive literature review on Geriatric Dentistry, focusing on the unique oral health challenges, treatment considerations, and preventive strategies for the elderly population. With increasing life expectancy and an aging global population, dental professionals face evolving demands in managing age-related oral conditions such as xerostomia, root caries, periodontal disease, and prosthetic needs. The book highlights physiological, psychological, and social factors influencing dental care in older adults, emphasizing the importance of individualized, multidisciplinary approaches. It also explores current research trends, innovations in geriatric oral care, and the role of dental professionals in enhancing the quality of life for seniors. This literature review serves as a valuable academic resource for students, researchers, and clinicians seeking to deepen their understanding of geriatric oral healthcare.
