HI Housework,
One episode of misplacing something doesn't mean he has dementia.
However, if you notice other things he's misplacing, appears confused about things that he never was before, makes poor decisions that are different from his normal routine, has difficulty finding words to finish sentences, gets mad more easily, then I would have him checked for dementia.
Whatever you do, DON'T say he needs to go to the doctor for a dementia check!! Tell his doctor ahead of time to not mention anything about checking his memory. Dementia sufferers are very sensitive about this.
Hopefully you have nothing to worry about.
