Abstract
The periodontal conditions of subjects with different combinations of removable dentures were studied in a representative sample of 8000 subjects, of which 90% were used for the experiment. The number of subjects with removable dentures was 1468. Subjects with removable partial dentures had significantly more pockets and deeper pockets than did those without dentures. The periodontal condition of subjects with a complete denture in the opposite jaw was significantly better than that in other subjects. This was true in both men and women. The results indicated the importance of prophylactic and maintenance care in subjects with removable partial dentures.
