Assessment of Role of Complete Dentures in Improving the Chewing Efficiency of Edentulous Patients
View through CrossRef
Introduction:
The loss of teeth leads to difficulty in chewing and smiling and an unesthetic appearance. The present study assessed the role of complete dentures in improving the chewing efficiency of edentulous patients.
Materials and Methods:
Eighty-two complete denture wearers of age group 40–75 years of both genders were enrolled in the study. The chewing efficiency of denture was determined by VMM machine. Patients were provided with the self- administered questionnaire and were advised to answer.
Results:
Out of 82 patients, there were 42 (51.2%) males and 40 (48.8%) females. The mean ± SD particle size was found to be 0.12 ± 0.07 mm in males and 0.13 ± 0.06 mm in females. A non-significant difference was observed (P > 0.05). The mean ± SD satisfaction level value was 1.28 ± 0.07.
Conclusion:
There was improved chewing efficiency with the complete denture, and the patient satisfaction level was high among patients.
