Interprofessional collaboration between dentists and nurses plays a crucial role in improving the oral health outcomes of patients in long-term care facilities. This review article aims to explore the impact of such collaboration on the overall oral health status of residents in these settings. The oral health of individuals in long-term care facilities is often compromised due to factors such as limited access to dental care, poor oral hygiene practices, and underlying medical conditions. Dentists and nurses bring unique skills and expertise to the table, and their collaboration can lead to comprehensive oral care plans tailored to the specific needs of each patient. By working together, dentists and nurses can conduct thorough oral assessments, develop personalized oral care routines, and provide education on proper oral hygiene practices to both patients and staff. This collaborative approach not only improves the oral health outcomes of residents but also enhances their overall quality of life. Moreover, early detection and management of oral health issues can prevent serious complications such as aspiration pneumonia, malnutrition, and systemic infections.
