STUDY COMPARING THE CHEWING ABILITY OF DENTATE SUBJECTS, COMPLETE REMOVABLE DENTURES, AND MAXILLARY MINI DENTAL IMPLANT OVERDENTURES

Abstract

Rehabilitation of an edentulous maxilla using mini dental implants (MDIs) is a cost-effective, less invasive alternative to traditional removable full dentures (CRD). Quantitative studies comparing masticatory ability under different oral circumstances are rare, however. Studying how dentate groups, maxillary complete removable dentures (CRD), and full upper dentures fared in terms of both subjective and objective masticatory performance was the focus of this study (MDI). Toolkits and Methods: Complete dentate subjects (DP), Dentate dental students (DS), maxillary CRD or MDI overdentures (MDI), and dentate mandible (DM) are all participants in this research. Their ages range from 20 to 50 years old. Using a circular Variance of Hue (VOH meter (Hue-check View Gum® Test), a scientific investigation was carried out to determine whether or not it is possible to mix two different colors of chewing gum. Subjective masticatory experiences were also compared between the CRD group and the MDI group using OHRQL, OHIP-14 questionnaire, and a visual analog scale (VAS) for various food consistencies. The mean VOH for dentate dental 20+ students was 0.11 (standard deviation = 0.50 & range = 0.05-0.27), while the mean VOH for dentate dental 50+ students was 0.13 (standard deviation = 0.08 & range = 0.03-0.31) (p = 0.774). Dentate dental CRD patients had a mean VOH of 0.41 (standard deviation = 0.41, range = 0.14-0.76). It is important to note that the difference in VAS ratings between the groups who received CRD or MDI overdentures (p > 0.050) is not significant. The average OHIP-14 total score for patients with CRD was 12.10 (SD 15.87, range 0-56), although this significantly decreased to 2.85 (p = 0.039) for those who received MDI. (Standard Deviation: 2.8, Interquartile Range: 0-15) Those aged 20 and up and those aged 50 and up showed similar outcomes in terms of objective masticatory skills, but those with CRD and MDI fared far worse. It was shown that both subjective and objective masticatory performance was not significantly better with MDI overdentures than with CRD. A significant improvement in OHRQL was seen, however, for MDI. Keywords: dental implants, oral, mastication
