Abstract
This cross-sectional analytic study aimed to compare the Oral Impacts on Daily Performances among elderly wearing acrylic based denture to edentulous patients and who having at least 20 natural teeth which used to utilize dental service of Saingam hospital in 2012-2014. The 1,158 subjects were calculated using probability proportional to size and voluntary included. Data collections using health behavioral questionnaire, Oral Impacts on Daily Performances index and oral health examination were conducted from September to December 2014. Analysis of variance and Tamhane’s T2 test were used to compare the differences in the mean values, p-value<0.05.
Among denture wearers, 24.00 % of them had at least one oral impact which the most common difficulty was eating (21.54 %). In overall, denture wearers had average oral impact score significantly higher than edentulous patients in speaking or phonation, cleaning mouth or denture, carrying daily performance, sleeping or relaxing and emotional status. The group of wearing denture lower than 16 teeth had the highest proportion of oral impact (40.00%) and significantly higher than wearer denture at least 16 teeth and edentulous patients. They had higher proportion of daily perform difficulty than the denture at least 16 teeth group and higher difficulties of speaking or phonation and carrying daily performance than at least 20 natural teeth group. Even dentures improve eating ability but denture wearers having natural teeth should receive periodically caries and periodontal disease prevention; and denture examination.
