- W3009360649 abstract "Introduction: Removable dentures are being used as a replacement for missing teeth to restore function and aesthetics that has resulted in improved quality of life. However, different orofacial lesions may be presented as an associated complication to these appliances.Aim: The present study aims at investigating the prevalence of denture-related lesions (DRLs) among the denture wearers.Method: This was a descriptive, cross-sectional study. Clinical examination of 167 individuals with dentures was conducted from December 2013 to April 2014. Data form was designed to collect general information including personal data (e.g., age, gender), smoking practice, and frequency, duration and number of DRLs. The data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS software, version 22 (SPSS, Inc. IBM, Chicago, IL, USA). The responses were expressed as percentages.Results: A total of 167 patients (82 men and 85 women) with a mean age of 58 years were enrolled in the present study. Of them, 84 had partial dentures while 75 had complete dentures. Eight patients had upper complete dentures and lower partial dentures. Different DRLs were reported. Sixty-six participants (39.5%) had one or more denture-related abnormalities. Traumatic ulceration was the most common denture-associated lesions and was observed in 25 (15%) participants.Conclusion: DRLs were found to be more common among complete denture wearers than in partial denture wearers. However, regular follow-ups would help in early detection of the unnoticed abnormalities or complications of the dentures." @default.
