Abstract

Subject. The article provides an analysis of the indicators of life quality of patients after prosthetic treatment. The study included patients with overlapping prostheses based on dental implants and tooth roots. Patients were divided into main and control groups.
 Aim – to analyze the quality of life of patients after prosthetic treatment using overlapping prostheses.
 Methodology. We conducted prosthetic treatment of 45 patients among them, 19 men and 26 women, aged from 45 to 72 years. Overlapping prostheses based on dental implants were made for patients of the main group. Overlapping prostheses based on the restored tooth roots were made for patients of the control group. We analyzed the quality of life of patients of the main and control groups after prosthetic treatment based on the results of survey. The OHIP-14 method for determining the quality of life in dental patients was used.
 Results. After prosthetic treatment of patients of the main group using overlapping dentures based on dental implants, the results of study of life quality were 17.1 ± 2.7. One month after prosthetic treatment, patients in the control group, according to the results of the questionnaire, had quality of life indicators of 18.1 ± 3.9. Orthopedic treatment of patients using overdentures is a modern and effective method. The use of dental implantation in the patients of the main group and the restoration of the roots of the teeth in the patients of the control group to support the overdentures made it possible to achieve optimal results.
 Conclusions. The use of overlapping dentures based on dental implants and restored tooth roots improves the quality of life of patients.
