My cousin has had sudden stepped down decline and also gradual. I haven't really seen any plateau period with her, though others may have different experiences. From everything that I have read, the progression of dementia is continuous and they list what the mind and body do as they happens. There should be lists, charts, etc. on line that show this. You can also speak to your loved ones doctor about it, if you think you see a plateau.
