Amnesia and dementia are two different diseases. While amnesia is more often than not, temporary, dementia is a long term disease that progressively worsens.
Alzheimer's disease is primarily associated with anterograde amnesia, which is the inability to form new memories after the onset of the disease. Patients may struggle to remember recent events or learn new information while retaining older memories for a time. As the disease progresses, retrograde amnesia can also occur, affecting memories formed before the onset of symptoms. This dual impact on memory is a hallmark of Alzheimer's.
