Abstract EN
Background & Objective: Factors affecting the usage of removable partial dentures (RPDs) are still controversial.
Since the RPD usage is partly related to patients’ personality, variations among different population is expected.
This study aimed to evaluate the factors that influence the RPDs denture usage in patients of undergraduate students of Damascus University by using telephone call one-year after delivery.
Methods & Materials: 409 clinical records of patients who had RPDs inserted by the undergraduate students were reviewed.
Of the 409 patients (received 633 RPDs), 215 could be contacted by telephone to be asked about usage of RPD one-year after delivery.
Data for a structured questionnaire contained information about the patient, Kennedy classification, the RPD/ RPDs and the usage of the RPDs.
Collected data was statistically analyzed using SPSS version 17 at p =0.05.
Results: 40.2% of the dentures are not used, 9.2% are used sometimes, 13.5% are often used, and 37.1% are always used.
No statistically significant association between denture usage and patient age, patient gender, denture location (upper or lower), Kennedy classification, or denture material.
Statistically significant correlations were found between denture usage and esthetic necessity (p= 0.002), masticatory necessity (p= 0.002) or the presence of recall appointment (p= 0.012).
Conclusions: These findings suggest that the use of RPDs is related to the presence of anterior replacement teeth, masticatory need, or recall appointments.
The presence of recall appointment was the most important factor.
Aesthetics was more effective factor than function.
It is very important to consider these significant factors for treatment planning of RPDs
