        abstract = {Epilepsy, is a chronic neurological disorder affecting millions of people worldwide. This creates complex situations especially for providing dental care. The seizures are unpredictable, affected by long-term antiepileptic medications add severe complications during invasive procedures. Established procedures in dentistry have mainly focused on broad-based strategies. This involves reducing stress, being prepared for emergency situations, and taking necessary steps to prevent seizures. They often fail to account for the differences among the patients. These includes the variations in seizure type and frequency with the differences in how medications are metabolized. If other health conditions occurs with epilepsy then the impact on the patient. In recent years, dental care has started moving towards a more precise and personalized approach, where treatment plans are tailored to each patient’s medical history and individual risk factors. New tools such as artificial intelligence–based systems for predicting seizures, wearable devices for continuous monitoring, customized sedation plans, and pharmacogenomic guidance for choosing the right medications are helping improve both safety and treatment effectiveness. At the same time, advancements like digital workflows, minimally invasive treatment techniques, and tele-dentistry are making specialized dental services more accessible, especially in areas where epilepsy care was previously limited. This review summarizes current global guidelines, highlights new evidence-based approaches, and discusses emerging technologies with the aim of creating a clear roadmap to improve safety, personalization and long-term outcomes in dental care for people with epilepsy.},
