Alzheimer's disease, (Sentile) Dementia of the Alzheimer Type, Alzheimer's,


Explanation:
You can use all of these terms, SDAT is more accurate though.
I'd also add a term "Alzheimer's dementia" which points to the fact that dementia is caused by Alzheimer disease.

I have NVQ level 2 in dementia care so I suppose I know what I am saying... ;-)


Example sentence(s):
  • "Alzheimer's disease (AD), also called Alzheimer disease, Senile Dementia of the Alzheimer Type (SDAT) or simply Alzheimer's, is the most common form of dementia"
