Abstract	The existence of a dynamic dentist-patient interaction is extremely vital for experiencing maximum dental care as well as satisfaction in patients. This review thus goes on to examine some of the most important aspects such as age, sex, health status, socioeconomic status, communication skills, ergonomics, and ethical principles. Further, it discusses the disparity between ideal practice and what is actually happening and highlights some barriers such as time constraint and communication. The recommendations for dental education are diversity training, communication workshops, and experiential training. The review further emphasizes on personalized care strategies and future research on technology integration, cross-cultural studies, and interdisciplinary approaches to improve patient care and dental outcomes.
