Abstract

This review article explores the significant impact of oral health education and preventive dental care on the overall health outcomes of patients with chronic conditions, particularly when managed collaboratively by both nurses and dentists. The link between oral health and systemic health has been well-established, with growing evidence suggesting that poor oral health can exacerbate chronic conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory disorders. Despite this interconnection, oral health is often overlooked in the comprehensive care of patients with chronic illnesses. This review aims to highlight the importance of integrating oral health education and preventive dental care into the management of chronic conditions to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.The review discusses the role of nurses and dentists in providing holistic care to patients with chronic conditions, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary collaboration to address both oral and systemic health issues effectively. By incorporating oral health education into nursing practice and promoting regular dental check-ups as part of the patient's care plan, healthcare providers can help prevent oral diseases and complications that may impact the management of chronic conditions. Furthermore, early detection and treatment of oral health problems can contribute to better overall health outcomes and reduce the risk of systemic complications in patients with chronic illnesses.
