    Area of Science:

    • Oral Medicine
    • Geriatric Dentistry
    • Dental Prosthetics

    Background:

    • Denture use is common in aging populations.
    • Denture-related oral conditions are prevalent.
    • Understanding these conditions is crucial for patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify common symptoms and intraoral findings in denture wearers.
    • To explore factors influencing these oral health problems.
    • To investigate the role of psychological components in persistent complaints.

    Main Methods:

    • Clinical examination of denture wearers.
    • Assessment of intraoral mucosa.
    • Identification of common abnormalities and symptoms.

    Main Results:

    • Common issues include candidal infections and traumatic lesions.
    • Patient age and denture-bearing mucosa characteristics influence problem types.
    • A subset of patients with symptoms but no oral changes had psychological factors.

    Conclusions:

    • Denture-related oral issues are multifactorial, involving biological and potentially psychological elements.
    • Addressing both physical and psychological aspects may be necessary for comprehensive patient management.
    • Further research into the psychological component of denture-related complaints is warranted.
