Abstract

To compile an audit of removable denture prosthesis fabricated for patients attending a teaching clinic. A retrospective analysis. Division of Prosthetic Dentistry, Faculty of Dental Sciences, University of Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya. Clinical records of the patients attended to in the prosthetic teaching clinic from 1993 to 1997 inclusive were analysed to extract information regarding the quality of clinical notes and the pattern of provision of prostheses. A total of 817 patients were provided with dentures of whom 602 were provided with complete upper and lower dentures. Single complete dentures were fabricated for 18 patients and 197 patients had partial dentures fabricated. While the number of prostheses provided may be in conformity with the unit resources, clinical notes were found to have significant omissions for which recommendations have been suggested.
