Résumé
The World Health Organization estimates that adults aged 65 years and older will account for one-fifth of the overall population in 34 nations around the world by the end of this decade. India will only cross that landmark in 2050, when its older adult population is expected to be around 347 million people, up from 149 million in 2022.[1] These are staggering numbers and should give us some pause. Although older adults currently account for just under 10% of India’s population, this is still a sizable cohort, equaling the entire population of countries like Russia or Japan. While the demographic changes brought on by an aging population affect all aspects of our lives, it especially prompts a review of our preparedness to provide medical and dental services for a population at higher risk for disease. Aging is all around us. In India, our experiences growing up in multigenerational households are often our first lessons in respect and compassion for older adults. We carry these values into our future roles as dental providers but find that purposeful dental training focusing on older adults and people with special health-care needs varies widely in its intensity and availability. Local economic and cultural factors play an important role in the demand for such care, and changes in family structure, growth in per capita income, and the expansion of the middle class have all influenced how India’s older adults perceive their dental needs. Itis,therefore,criticalthatour future dental providershave the technical and interpersonal skills to provide comprehensive care to older adults and those with special health-care needs. Historically, countries have responded to the challenge of fulfilling the oral health needs of their older adult populations only when this cohort has developed a critical mass. Japan, Canada, USA, and several countries in Europe that host formal training programs in geriatric dentistry also happen to have older adults representing more than 15% of their overall population. The thought here is that the longevity that older adults now enjoy with advances in medical science and general living conditions will also bring with it enhanced oral health-care needs. Similarly, India’s burgeoning older adult population demands short- and long-term investment in curriculum, accommodations, and technology to train our young graduates and specialists in providing care to this group of individuals. All of the opportunities that I got to learn about older adults, be it a dental procedure or simply listening to their thoughts on what they expect from the remaining years of their lives, impacted me greatly. I got to see how India’s older adults were an extremely diverse group that transcended language, region, religion, and socioeconomic status in their desire for health and happiness. The intersection of age and health makes for uncertain outcomes; however, one thing is clear, the number of older adults with cognitive impairments and complex health conditions who also need dental care, be it on a routine or emergency basis, will only continue to grow. In the pages that follow, as you review papers that go into various aspects of oral health science, I ask you to consider how these learnings might benefit older adult patients in your care and think of ways to support the oral health needs of this cohort further.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
