Abstract

Background: This study was conducted to assess The Effect of Complete Dentures on the Quality of Life of Edentulous Patients. Material and methods: A total of 100 patients who were entirely edentulous and between the ages of 40 and 50 were chosen. There were 19 questions on a standardized questionnaire that were based on the degree of satisfaction with dentures and the ability to chew in the functional limitation (FL), psychological discomfort (D1), psychological disability (D2), and social impairment (D3) domains. All of the questions were graded on a scale of 2, 1, or 0 depending on levels of satisfaction (satisfied, somewhat satisfied, and not satisfied), while levels of masticatory capacity were utilized rarely, occasionally, and frequently. Based on the patients' post-treatment happiness with their brand-new maxillary/mandibular complete dentures, questions regarding denture satisfaction were posed.
