Resum
Background: The success of rehabilitation of
completely edentulous patients with complete denture
depends on the satisfaction and utilization of the
complete denture after treatment. This outcome is
influenced by various factors.
Objective: To determine the effect of socio
demographic factors and past denture experience on
complete denture satisfaction and utilization among
patients.
Method: Fifty-two completely edentulous patients
who presented at the prosthodontics unit of the Dental
Center, Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching
Hospitals Complex, Île Ife were recruited for the
study having met the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
The data taken were the socio- demographic profile
such as age, gender, biological age and educational
level. Past denture experience was also recorded.
The complete dentures were fabricated using the
procedure described by the British Society of
Prosthetic Dentistry. All dentures met the Functional
Assessment of Denture Criteria before delivery.
Patient were recalled after 3 months to assess
satisfaction and utilization.
Result: A total of fifty-two patients comprising of
19 males (36.5%) and 33 females (63.5%) were
recruited for the study. Age, gender, educational level
and past denture experience did not affect denture
satisfaction and utilization. However, biological age
affected denture satisfaction but did not affect
utilization of the denture.
Conclusion: Complete denture satisfaction was
affected by biological age despite ensuring good
quality of dentures fabricated using the Functional
Assessment of Denture Criteria to assess complete
denture.
