Popis: Denture wearers have different problems from non-denture wearers in terms of maintaining oral health.In this study, we attempted to find out specific difficulties of denture wearers with questionnaires about social life problems as well as oral hygiene problems. Our results indicate that about the half of the patients we surveyed remembered the instruction for denture cleaning methods. Most of the denture wearers considered the cleaning of denture was essential to maintain their oral health, though methods they employed showed a great deal of difference.Also denture wearers cared much about for other people's attention and felt much difficulties in cleaning their dentures when they were not at home.
