Abstract

This chapter will provide valuable insights and practical guidance to dental students, practitioners, and researchers seeking a comprehensive understanding of the systemic conditions affecting the elderly and the role of modern technology in addressing their dental needs. The elderly population is growing worldwide, and with it comes an increased prevalence of systemic conditions that can affect oral health. Managing dental treatment for elderly patients with systemic conditions poses unique challenges. To address these challenges and provide the best possible care, modern technology has been integrated into dental practice. This integration includes a range of digital tools and innovations, from digital imaging and teledentistry to electronic health records (EHRs) and artificial intelligence (AI). In this comprehensive chapter, the authors explore the significance of modern technology in managing dental treatment for elderly patients with systemic conditions, its impact on patient care, the challenges and considerations, and the future of technology in geriatric dentistry.
