VALLEDOR-ALVAREZ, Jorge Enrique e AGUILA-RODRIGUEZ, Carlos Alain. Relationship between Systemic diseases and Oral diseases in the elderly. AMC [online]. 2022, vol.26 Epub 25-Ago-2022. ISSN 1025-0255.
Introduction:
Aging is an inevitable and progressive process that currently constitutes a serious sociodemographic problem, where its high numbers constitute a challenge for the health system.
Objective:
To update knowledge about the relationship between systemic diseases and oral diseases in the elderly.
Methods:
A literature review was conducted between April and July 2021. Articles available in the SciELO, BVS, PudMed, Scopus, LILACS databases, in the Google Scholar search engine and Web of Sciences journals were reviewed, resulting in a total of 30 bibliographic references used, where 50 % and 83.3 % were limited to literature from the last three and five years respectively. Its relevance and novelty were taken into account in correspondence on the subject.
Results:
Aging is marked by the occurrence of systemic and oral diseases, where there are numerous published works that show that one of them can influence, being a cause or a consequence, in the development of the other.
Conclusions:
It is important to know the bidirectional relationship between systemic diseases and oral diseases in the elderly, requiring greater care and systematic attention in these patients.
