Method of study: review literature


Results: Endodontic challenge in treating a geriatric patient is complex medical history, communication challenge, susceptible to caries, attrition,long standing periodontal disease,delay wound healing process,cracked tooth and calcified root canal. Clinical practice guideline for safe geriatric endodontics consideration: diagnostic procedure, treatment planning,environment arrangement, equipment and technique for management of root canal treatment in elderly patients for reducing treatment complication.


Conclusions:Endodontic procedures in the elderly patients have been challenging from a technical perspective in view of the likelihood of the pulpspace system being obliterated. These challengers also  include biological, medical and psychological. Endodontic treatment in the elderly requires the expertise of a dentist, modern technology including the co-operation of the elderly. The growing desire of elderly patients to maintain their teeth has led to an increased need for the performance of root canal treatment.
