Oral conditions and aptitude to receive implants in patients with removable partial denture: a cross-sectional study. Part II. Aptitude

Abstract: Removable partial denture is inserted in the mouth after remained generally require maintenance. Most people who think that the problem of missing teeth in the oral cavity has been overcome with the use of dentures, but in fact the use of denture without maintenance of good oral health can lead to disrupted. Oral hygiene that is not maintained properly can result in an increase in plaque and caries and periodontal disease more. The aim of this study was to assess the damage abutment on the user partial dentures in Kota Batu village. This study is a descriptive study with cross sectional study. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with a sample size in this study of 81 patients. The data were collected with intra oral examinatio. The results of this study indicate damage to the gear elements that serve as a buffer in the form of caries and fractures by 59 damage and damage to the tissues supporting the teeth in the form of mobility of teeth, gingivitis, bleeding and periodontitis by 72 damage. In this study found the majority of respondents suffered damages in abutment with the most damage occurred on the elements of the teeth that serve as the backbone is in the form of caries damage and damage most of the tissues supporting the abutment is damage in the form of gingivitis. Keywords: removable partial dentures, tooth decay bufferAbstrak: Gigi Tiruan Sebagian Lepasan setelah dipasang dalam mulut pada umumnya tetap memerlukan pemeliharaan. Kebanyakan individu yang kehilangan gigi berpikir bahwa masalah pada rongga mulut sudah teratasi dengan pemakaian gigi tiruan, namun kenyataannya penggunaan gigi tiruan tanpa pemeliharaan yang baik dapat mengakibatkan kesehatan rongga mulut terganggu. Kebersihan mulut yang tidak dijaga dengan baik dapat mengakibatkan meningkatnya plak dan terjadi peningkatan karies dan penyakit periodontal lainnya. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui gambaran kerusakan gigi penyangga pada pengguna Gigi Tiruan Sebagian Lepasan di Kelurahan Batu Kota. Penelitian ini merupakan penelian deskriptif dengan pendekatan cross sectional study. Teknik pengambilan sampel yang menggunakan purposive sampling dengan jumlah sampel dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 81 orang. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan pemeriksaan intra oral. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan kerusakan pada elemen gigi yang dijadikan sebagai penyangga berupa karies dan fraktur sebesar 59 kerusakan dan kerusakan pada jaringan pendukung gigi berupa mobilitas gigi, gingivitis, perdarahan dan periodontitis sebesar 72 kerusakan. Pada penelitian ini ditemukan sebagian besar responden mengalami kerusakan pada gigi penyangga kerusakan yang paling banyak terjadi pada elemen gigi geligi yang dijadikan sebagai penyangga ialah kerusakan berupa karies dan kerusakan terbanyak pada jaringan penunjang gigi penyangga ialah kerusakan berupa gingivitis.

Prosthetic Status

Background: The aim of the study was to evaluate the dental prosthetic status and treatment needs among the 20–70 year old adults of Makkah region of Saudi Arabia. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among the Adult population of Makkah region of Saudi Arabia aged 20-70 years. 226 subjects who were above 20 years and who was reporting to Dental OPD of Ibn Sina National College for Medical studies, Jeddah for prosthesis of missing teeth was target of cross-sectional study and these patients were randomly selected. A questionnaire was developed and patient’s consent was taken and examination of the patient was done and data collected. The data was compiled and subjected to descriptive and inferential analysis using the SPSS software version 21. Univariate analysis was performed using Chi-square test at 5% level of significance. Results: Among the participants, 29.6% of them had crown and 27.4% of them had brides and only 6.2% of them had porcelain veneers. 31.9% of them desired fixed partial denture and 6.2% of them wanted Implant supported prosthesis. 22.6% of them were suitable for removable partial denture, 29.6% of them were suitable for fixed partial denture and only 3.1% of them suitable for Implant supported prosthesis. 38.9% of them opted for removable partial denture, 38.1% of them opted for fixed partial denture and only 13.3% of them opted for Implant supported prosthesis. Conclusion: Prosthodontists should to be able to understand a patient’s motive in seeking Prosthodontic care and identify these before starting the treatment. This study provides data for an oral health‑care provider program for Makkah region. The study confirms the relationship between increasing age and prosthetic status and treatment needs.

Control Designs

Removable partial denture (RPD) designs may differ based on types of materials used. The aim of the study was to investigate how a sample of non-metal clasp (NMC), acrylic and metal RPD designs complied with biomechanical design principles. This cross-sectional study examined 60 clinical designs of NMC, acrylic and metal RPDs at 3 commercial dental laboratories in the Cape Town Metropole, at the stage when the dentures were ready for transport to dentists. Retention, indirect retention, support, soft tissue cover, and cross-arch design features were recorded and compared with “ideal” control designs developed by 2 experts in the specialty of prosthodontics. Fifty five % of the clinical designs had no rests, hence were mucosa supported. None of the NMC and only 35% of acrylic RPDs had some rests. A total of 35 clinical designs required indirect retention, but it was only provided in 14 (40%) of them. Eighty five % of acrylic RPDs had no clasps; metal RPDs had more clasps than required while NMC RPDs had slightly less clasps than required. Ratio teeth covered/replaced was most favourable for metal (0.91), followed by acrylic (1.83) and NMC (1.80) RPDs. Cross – arch stabilization was absent in 22% of clinical designs, all of them from the NMC group. Of the 3 types of RPDs, metal RPDs complied best with requirements in terms of tissue support (mostly tooth and mixed tooth/mucosa), retention, cross-arch stabilization and “open” design. Acrylic RPDs provided crossarch stabilization but were lacking in all other aspects. Except for direct retention, NMC RPDs did not conform to any of the agreed biomechanical requirements for RPDs assessed in this study.

To Receive

ObjectivesEvidence suggests that homeless patients experience worse quality of care and poorer health outcomes across a range of medical conditions. It remains unclear, however, whether differences in care delivery at safety-net versus non-safety-net hospitals explain these disparities. We aimed to investigate whether homeless versus non-homeless adults hospitalised for cardiovascular conditions (acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke) experience differences in care delivery and health outcomes at safety-net versus non-safety-net hospitals.DesignCross-sectional study.SettingData including all hospital admissions in four states (Florida, Massachusetts, Maryland, and New York) in 2014.ParticipantsWe analysed 167 105 adults aged 18 years or older hospitalised for cardiovascular conditions (age mean=64.5 years; 75 361 (45.1%) women; 2123 (1.3%) homeless hospitalisations) discharged from 348 hospitals.Outcome measuresRisk-adjusted diagnostic and therapeutic procedure and in-hospital mortality, after adjusting for patient characteristics and state and quarter fixed effects.ResultsAt safety-net hospitals, homeless adults hospitalised for AMI were less likely to receive coronary angiogram (adjusted OR (aOR), 0.42; 95% CI, 0.36 to 0.50; p<0.001), percutaneous coronary intervention (aOR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.44 to 0.62; p<0.001) and coronary artery bypass graft (aOR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.26 to 0.71; p<0.01) compared with non-homeless adults. Homeless patients treated for strokes at safety-net hospitals were less likely to receive cerebral arteriography (aOR, 0.23; 95% CI, 0.16 to 0.34; p<0.001), but were as likely to receive thrombolysis therapy. At non-safety-net hospitals, we found no evidence that the probability of receiving these procedures differed between homeless and non-homeless adults hospitalised for AMI or stroke. Finally, there were no differences in in-hospital mortality rates for homeless versus non-homeless patients at either safety-net or non-safety-net hospitals.ConclusionDisparities in receipt of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for homeless patients with cardiovascular conditions were observed only at safety-net hospitals. However, we found no evidence that these differences influenced in-hospital mortality markedly.
