Abstract
Evaluation of treatment need in removable prosthodontics has been an important component of many epidemiologic and clinical oral health surveys. Accurate measurement of need for care enhances health care program planning, quality of care evaluation, and good clinical and health services research. Unfortunately, similar to the measures of oral and prosthesis status discussed in Part I of this review, measures of treatment need in removable prosthodontics have generally been neither reliable nor valid, and have lacked scientific credibility. Part II describes existing measures for treatment need in removable prosthodontics.
