Author(s) Saani

Abstract A growing global health issue is the prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease, ataxia, Huntington's disease, and supranuclear palsy. The oral health of those who suffer from these disorders has not gotten as much scrutiny as the cognitive and motor impairments linked to these diseases have. This article clarifies the crucial connection between dental health care and neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting the demand for coordinated guidelines. We comment on the particular oral health issues experienced by individuals with neurodegenerative illnesses, including diminished self-care skills and increased vulnerability to oral diseases and pathology, through an extensive assessment of the literature. We outline evidence-based recommended practices in oral health care for these people based on verified data and professional opinion. We also look at the viewpoints of patients and caregivers, highlighting the value of patient-centric care in developing oral health directives. Making decisions also takes into account ethical and legal issues, providing advice to professionals and families. This book provides a useful tool for improving the quality of life for afflicted individuals by outlining the step-by-step procedure for drafting oral health care directives. We aim to stimulate future research and promote better standards of oral health management in the context of neurodegenerative diseases by listing these directions as an essential part of holistic care.
