“…In the last two decades, the proportion of men has decreased slightly from 98.7 in 1980 to 97.5 in 1991 and 96.9 in 2000 22 . Table 1 reveals a mean age of 52.9 for the patients that were treated in the clinic, which is similar to the data found by Budtz-Jørgensen and Isidor 17 and Vanzeveren et al 12 In the present study, the mean age of the male patients was slightly higher than for the female patients; as it was also demonstrated by Vanzeren et al, 11 Carlsson et al, 23 Schwalm et al 24 and Benson and Spolsky 25 .…”

doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2012.00653.x   Prevalence of removable partial dentures users treated at the Aracatuba Dental School – UNESP Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of removable partial dentures (RPD) at the Aracatuba Dental School. Methods: The study was conducted by analysing 412 clinical history of patients attended at the RPD clinics in the period from 2000 to 2007. Results: 412 charts were analysed: 148 (35.9%) men and 264 (64.1%) women. The mean age was 53.8 years (men) and 52.4 years (women). A total of 556 dentures were made; of these, 233 (41.90%) were maxillary and 323 (58.09%) were mandibular dentures. The most frequent Kennedy classification found was Class III (maxilla) and Class I (mandible). In the maxilla, 55% (126) of the major connectors were of the anterior–posterior palatal bar, while in the mandible, 64% (202) were the lingual bar. As regards the claps, 401 were circumferential and 318 were bar claps. Conclusion: The mean age of the patients was 52.9 years with higher prevalence of female patients; the most frequent Kennedy’s classification was Class I in mandible and Class III in maxilla; the most common major connector was anterior–posterior palatal bar for maxilla and lingual bar for mandible; the circumferential clasps were the most common retainer used in both jaws.

“…The following aspects related to overdenture rehabilitation were evaluated (annex 2): -The condition of the acrylic portion of the teeth and of the base, classified as "requiring intervention" or "not requiring intervention" (18); -Base adaptation, classified as "adapted" or "not adapted" (19); -Occlusion, classified as "satisfactory" or "unsatisfactory" (20); -Retention, classified as "excellent", "good" or "poor" (18); -Stability, classified as "excellent", "good", or "poor" (20).…”

Oral health impact profile and prosthetic condition in edentulous patients rehabilitated with implant-supported overdentures and fixed prostheses

The complexity of rehabilitation for totally edentulous patients makes it necessary to devise treatment strategies that meet the patients' expectations in terms of function, esthetic, psychological, and social aspects. The aim of this study was to i) compare the satisfaction of edentulous patients who had been rehabilitated with implant-supported overdentures and fixed prostheses in the mandible, and ii) assess the technical aspects of the prostheses in relation to patient satisfaction. This was a cross-sectional study involving 30 patients, 15 of whom had been rehabilitated with implant-supported overdentures and 15 who had been treated with fixed prostheses. The patients answered the OHIP-EDENT questionnaire, validated for the Brazilian Portuguese language, to assess satisfaction. Also, patients underwent clinical examination to assess the condition of their prostheses. Statistical analysis using the Mann-Whitney U-test revealed no significant differences in satisfaction between patients with overdentures and those with fixed prostheses. Likewise, Fisher's exact test demonstrated no significant differences in patient satisfaction concerning the condition of the prostheses as evaluated by the prosthodontist. It was concluded that both types of prostheses were perceived as being equally satisfactory by edentulous patients, and that the condition of the prostheses did not influence individual satisfaction in

“… The design of retainer‐occlusal rest combinations (from circumferential to bar retainer and from distal to mesial occlusal rest placement) was reported to be important to reduce the rotational effect of the PRP around the abutment tooth in function. This reduced torsional loading and preserved periodontal health of abutment teeth and supporting ridge tissues (Kratochvil & Caputo 1974; Benson & Spolsky 1979). Laboratory studies provided contradicting data (Hekneby 1969), but the clinical validity of laboratory studies needs to be considered. Pre‐treatment tooth preparation (Kratochvil 1963) for distal extension PDs included distal guide planes on abutment teeth. Occlusal table modification was proposed as a means to reduce torque forces on abutment teeth from occlusal loading in function and parafunction and may include: …”

CRP--Studies of occlusal form and tooth arrangements, included balanced, lingualised and monoplane arrangements--lingualised posterior occlusion was preferred. Early studies on CRP design were observational as case reports, however data suggested that optimum function is achieved by modification of the maxillary occlusion, irrespective of the opposing mandibular occlusion. PRP--Edentulous ridge resorption is patient-specific, has a multifactorial aetiology and there is no objective data to confirm that mechanical factors cause bone loss; oral hygiene management is crucial for long-term health. Studies on distal extension PDs confirmed a link between bite force and masticatory function; preservation of two functioning posterior tooth units ipsilateral to the distal extension optimises function. Data indicate that patient-specific factors, rather than PD design-specific features, influence long-term PD outcomes. Implant superstructures--There is little scientific evidence specifying occlusal and superstructure design for fixed prostheses for teeth or implants. Occlusal scheme design and occlusal form have evolved through clinical experience, but there is no evidence to indicate that a particular design is superior. Complex neurophysiological mechanisms allow the jaw muscle system to accommodate to oral and dental changes.
