INTRODUCTION:
Elderly patients usually have dental disease and are highly prone to systemic diseases that may require special care during dental treatment. Therefore, it is important to recognize the relationship between certain systemic diseases and dental diseases before creating a treatment plan to achieve a successful treatment result [1]Diabetes and high blood pressure are the most common endocrine diseases and cardiovascular diseases, respectively. Local or systemic disease can affect the long-term outcome of implant treatment. Therefore, it is suggested that some of these diseases are contraindications to DI treatment. [2-4] Xerostomia may affect DI treatment as a local factor. Xerostomia is caused by autoimmune diseases such as Sjogren's syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, and diabetes [5]The overall health of dental patients varies, and the prevalence of systemic diseases that can affect dentistry appears to be high.[6] Some systemic diseases can impede circulation and reduce oxygen pressure and nutrients. Therefore, they can be expected to influence the outcome of the osseointegration reaction. Systemic diseases can affect oral tissues, increasing their susceptibility to other diseases or preventing recovery. [7]Common systemic diseases that require special attention from the dentist when treating these patients with implants. These include cardiovascular disease, endocrine disease, kidney disease, respiratory disease, and liver diseases.
