Objective : to compare excessive daytime sleepiness between complete denture wearers and dentate subjects among jordanian norms using epworth sleepiness scale.
Methods : a total of 107 jordanian subjects were included in this cross-sectional study.
They were randomly selected from the general population (dentate and complete denture wearers) who fulfilled objective diagnostic criteria and responded to a questionnaire.
A validated, arabic version of the epworth sleepiness scale (ess) was used to compare excessive daytime sleepiness between complete denture wearers and dentate subjects, gender and age differences were also investigated.
The questionnaire asks the subject to rate his or her probability of falling asleep on a scale of increasing probability from 0 to 3 for eight different situations.
Statistical analysis was performed using student’s t-test and one-way anova to evaluate the differences in mean values of ess between dentate and complete denture wearers in relation to gender and age.
Level of significance was set at 0.05.
Results : the mean age of subjects was 54.61 ± 12.41 (range 35-84 years), with mean ess score of 9.51 ± 4.83 (range 1-21).
Fifty-nine (55.14 %) participants were dentate and 48 (44.86%) were complete denture wearers, with mean ess values of 5.81 ± 2.21 and 14.06 ± 2.88 respectively.
Statistically significant differences were found in the age, and ess scores between complete denture wearers and dentate subjects.
Conclusion : elderly complete denture wearers had higher scores of excessive day-time sleepiness compared with dentate subjects.
