Background–Edentulism is a common problem faced by several middle-aged and elderly. Most of these patients develop a feeling of disability and inferiority. Patients undergo oral rehabilitation using conventional complete dentures to get a better quality of life.
Aim- The study aims to assess oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in patients after complete denture treatment by visiting a private dental college in Chennai.
Setting and Design - Questionnaire based survey
Methodology– A total of 70 edentulous patients were chosen for the study. The OHIP-EDENT questionnaire is the specific questionnaire for edentulous patients. The pre-validated questionnaire consisted of 13 questions and was distributed among edentulous patients who underwent treatment in the private dental college after obtaining informed consent from the patients. The questionnaire was distributed among those patients who had their complete dentures inserted at least 3 months before.
Results- After rehabilitation using complete dentures, most patients showed significant improvements in oral health-related quality of life.
