    Most complete denture wearers experience mandibular dysfunction, including pain and poor denture fit. Regular evaluations are recommended to assess and manage these common denture-related issues in patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral Health

    Background:

    • Complete dentures are common prosthetics for tooth loss.
    • Mandibular dysfunction can significantly impact denture wearer quality of life.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the prevalence and symptoms of mandibular dysfunction in complete denture wearers.
    • To identify clinical signs associated with mandibular dysfunction in this population.

    Main Methods:

    • A study involving 100 complete denture wearers.
    • Data collection through questionnaires and physical examinations.
    • Assessment of symptoms like pain and physical signs of dysfunction.

    Main Results:

    • Ninety-four percent of patients showed clinical signs of mandibular dysfunction.

  • Common symptoms included poorly fitting dentures, headaches, and temporomandibular joint pain.
  • Two-thirds exhibited decreased facial height, dental attrition, and occlusal discrepancies.

    • Conclusions:

    • Mandibular dysfunction is highly prevalent in complete denture wearers.
    • Poor denture fit and occlusal issues are key contributing factors.
    • Periodic evaluation for mandibular dysfunction is crucial for all denture patients.
