Abstract

In order to compare the differences of part of the oral sensory functions among natural dentition, complete denture wearers and implant-supported prostheses wearers, tactile and pressure awareness was measured. Tactile sense was estimated by the thickness perception threshold between upper and lower dentition. Sensibility of pressure feeling was evaluated by threshold of lateral loading on tooth. Within this limited experiment, it could be concluded that an osseointegrated root form implant helped towards restoration of oral sensory functions.
