| Popis: | Abstract Objective. The comparative evaluation between the new and old complete dentures regarding equilibrium, functionality and aesthetic criteria. Material and method. A comparative study, based on a 22 questions enquiry was performed and applied to 30 complete bimaxilary edentulous patients, who came for a new prosthetic treatment. The study was performed in a 3 years period of time (2012-2014) and 10 patients were chosen from every year. The answers were colected and a statistical analysis was performed. Results and discussions. In each year of the 3 studied, almost all patient's expectations, regarding functionality and aesthetic criteria (size, form and colour of teeth, vestibular curvature, teeth visibility), with the new dentures, were fulfilled, with an improvement of the satisfaction's degree, related to the previous dentures. After the statistical analysis, men were more unsatisfied by the masticatory function offered by the new dentures and the women by the aesthetic criteria, both being satisfied by the phonation. Conclusions. The satisfaction degree with the new dentures was better related to the old ones, functionally and aesthetically. Patients satisfaction in a new complete denture treatment multifactorial is an important determinant of the success and objective of this type of treatment. |
