Introduction: Organization of the findings associated with various diagnostic aids plays a key role in formulating the treatment plan of the patients undergoing dental and medical treatment. Enhanced consistency in diagnosing and classifying prosthodontic patients is the basic purpose of various classification systems. Hence, we planned this study to classify partially edentulous patients and completely dentate patients at the undergraduate clinics using the prosthodontic diagnostic index (PDI). Materials and methods:This study included classification of 13,599 edentulous patients who attended the clinics of undergraduate students of all the levels. Screening of all the patients was done radiographically with a digital orthopantomograph (OPG), and the data were saved in the computer system. The intraoral periapical radiographs (IOPA) taken for all the affected areas were also saved in the system. Based on the OPG and IOPA, the patients were classified into various classes. All the data of the patients were recorded and analyzed.Results: Total number of patients screened was 17,220, out of which 3,621 were under 18 years of age and were excluded from the study. Most of the patients belonged to the age group of 31 to 45 years: 5,360 (39.4%) patients (3,817 [43.0%] Conclusion:There is a need to introduce PDI as a screening tool during the initial examination of the patient and to achieve

Significant treatment modifiers were the GERD and finances.…”

ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACTBackground and reasons: Edentulousness falls in a special category among the various conditions of dental origin. People living in rural areas may follow a form of healthcare based on ancient traditions, beliefs and cultural habits. A major challenge for the dentist will be to plan oral healthcare for this group of patients, and their acceptance of treatment for their welfare. Partial edentulism is an indication of unhealthy dental practices in the society and attitude towards dental and oral care. This study is done to create awareness of partial edentulism and the need for tooth replacements among people.Objective: To conduct a survey to assess the awareness of partial edentulism and tooth replacements in rural population in Kancheepuram. Methodology: A cross sectional study was done by conducting a survey consisting of 10 questions were asked among 100 people aged between 18-65 in rural districts of Kancheepuram. Results: It was seen that 64% of the participants were aware of tooth replacements and 36 % were not aware of them. Though 81% are ready to accept prosthodontic treatment, 19% declined prosthodontic treatment stating unawareness, cost factor, lack of facilities as the reasons, of which unawareness (55%) was the major reason stated by the participants. Conclusion:This study showed the inadequate awareness of prosthodontic rehabilitation among the people and people should be educated about the need for prosthodontic treatment.
