| description | Partial edentulism, one or more teeth missing is an indication of healthy behaviour of dental practices in the society and attitude towards
dental and oral care. The pattern of partial edentulism has been evaluated in many selected populations in different countries by different
methods. Most of the studies have evaluated partial edentulism by surveying of Removable Partial Dentures (RPDs), patients visiting
clinics, clinical records and population in particular locality.
The objective of the study is to review the prevalence of partial edentulousness and its correlation to age,gender, arch predominance,
socio economic factors and incidence of various Kennedy’s Classes. Key observations drawn from the review are as below.
• There is no gender correlation for partial edentulism.
• Prevalence of partial edentulism is more common in mandibular arch than maxillary arch.
• Younger adults have more Class III and IV RPDs. Elders have more distal extension RPDs Class I and II. |
