“…[38] Currently, this situation may have become more critical, owing to the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic since 2019, which has exacerbated the existing racial/ ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in public health. [14,39,40] Socioeconomic status and dementia are closely related and may be important factors in dental decision-making for persons with dementia.

Dental decision-making represents the establishment of a common understanding between the dental professional and the recipient of the intervention, which determines oral healthcare and dental treatment policies. Dental decision-making for persons with dementia can be challenging, and there have been no systematic reviews on this topic. Therefore, this systematic narrative review aimed to identify the current state of dental decision-making in persons with dementia. Literature search was performed using PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and Google Scholar databases. Through the process of research selection, 7 articles with a high risk of bias were included in this study. This review clarified that there is limited information on the dental decision-making processes for persons with dementia. In conclusion, although this may be difficult due to different medical and socioeconomic conditions, the dilemma between the need to establish evidence for dental decision-making and medical ethics that prioritize a patient-centered position should be discussed globally in the future.

Personal identification using dental evidence is decisive in the case of unidentified bodies because dental features, including decayed, missing and filled teeth, are unique to every individual. This review explored the possibilities and problems associated with personal identification through digital methods by the integration of telecommunications and dentistry, also known as teledentistry. Establishment of a global, objective personal identification method using dental evidence through teledentistry is desirable. However, the review reports that there are various problems that need to be resolved first, in aspects such as changes in dentition over time, technology, individual privacy and ethics. It is suggested that solving such problems and constructing a worldwide dental database for personal identification from dental images, using teledentistry, as part of social services, is a new challenge for researchers in forensic odontology and dentistry.

“…54 This commitment to access can be seen in the creation of multiple patient family advisory councils proposing themes of access, team based care and patient centric communication. 55 The thematic response has been multi‐dimensional: Public health focused shared medical appointment programs for underserved communities 56 ; telemedicine programs promoting mental health 57 ; linkage of thousands to supplies and community resources during the pandemic and federally qualified health center partnerships 58 ; building brand new grocery stores in “food deserts”; internet connectivity in impoverished local neighborhoods. All testament to the continued CCHS focus on access for our most underserved communities.…”

The call for age friendliness has been championed by numerous organizations. The World Health Organization, John A. Hartford Foundation, Institute for Healthcare Improvement (HI), American Hospital Association, and numerous others have envisioned age friendly cities, communities and health systems.
