description | Background: Health-related quality of life is significantly
influenced by oral health of individuals. This study aimed to compare patient satisfaction
and oral health–related quality of life (OHRQoL) among patients using complete
dentures (CDs) and partial dentures (PDs).Methods: The study was carried out between October 2014
and February 2017 on patients who received CD and PD treatment in the … (name was deleted for blinded peer review)
University Faculty of Dentistry. The quality of life of the patients was
assessed using a questionnaire including the Oral Health Impact Profile
(OHIP-14). The patients were divided into the following groups according to
their prosthesis type and location: 1) Group I: CDmax-mand, 2) Group
II: CDmax-PDmand, 3) Group III: PDmax-CDmand
and 4) Group IV: PDmax-mand. Sociodemographic datas, prosthesis age,
and effects of prosthetic location on the OHRQoL were also examined.Results: Statistical analyses showed that age, gender,
educational status and duration of prosthesis usage did not have an impact on
the OHIP-14 scores of patients (p>0,05). Physical pain scores of patients in
Group I and Group III were significantly higher than those of patients in Group
IV (p<0.05). In addition, patients in Group III were found to have higher
scores for social handicap compared with patients in Group II and, patients in
Group I and Group III have also higher scores than those of patients in Group
IV (p<0.05).Conclusions: Prosthetic rehabilitation with CD and PD has an
important impact on improving the OHRQoL of patients. The OHRQoL can be further
improved with regular dental control and/or the need to replacement of
prosthesis at regular intervals.Keywords: Dentures, Patient satisfaction, Oral health,
