Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between quality of liferelated t oral health of edentulous patients and wearing dentures.

This was a cross-sectional, analytical study of 384 edentulous people, with or without dentures, in the city of Mahajanga Madagascar. The OHIP-14 score, the number of missing teeth, the edentulous area, the type of edentulous, the edentulous arch, whether or not a dental prosthesis was worn, the type of dental prosthesis and the quality of life were evaluated.

We observed that the majority (82.8%) of the study population did not wear dentures. Quality of life was related to the number of missing teeth, edentulous area type of edentulous according to the OHIP-14 score. People who wore dental prostheses had a better quality of life than those who did not.

It is vital to raise awareness of the need to wear dental prostheses and to provide information about the impact of edentulous on quality of life.

In the future, a longitudinal study will be necessary.
