İmplant Destekli Overdenture ile Klasik Tam Protezlerin Memnuniyet Açısından Karşılaştırılması: Bir Klinik Değerlendirme

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, klasik tam protez ve implant destekli tam protez kullanan hastaların memnuniyetlerini değerlendirmek ve demografik özelliklerinin memnuniyet üzerine etkisini incelemekti. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya, 2024 yılında Atatürk Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi’nde, alt-üst klasik tam protez ve üst klasik-alt implant destekli tam protez uygulanan, 49’u kadın ve 31’i erkek, toplam 80 hasta dahil edildi. Hastalara, sosyodemografik özelliklerini (cinsiyet, yaş, medeni durum, öğrenim durumu, gelir düzeyi) içeren ve protezlerinin memnuniyetini değerlendiren anket formları dağıtıldı. Cevapların, memnun değilim/memnunum/çok memnunum şeklinde verilmesi istendi. Niteliksel verilerin karşılaştırılmasında Ki-Kare testi ve Fisher’s Exact Ki-Kare testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: %61,3’ü kadın ve %38,7’si erkek olan toplam 80 hastanın yaş ortalaması idi. İmplant destekli protez kullanan lise ve üzeri eğitim düzeyindeki hastaların oranının, klasik tam protezler kullananlardan anlamlı şekilde yüksek olduğu görüldü. (p < 0,05)İmplant destekli protez kullanan hastalar ile klasik tam protez kullanan hastaların estetik, çiğneme, konuşma, tutuculuk ve rahatlık memnuniyet düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmadı. (p > 0,05)

Comparison of Implant-Supported Overdenture and Classic Complete Dentures in terms of Satisfaction: A Clinical Evaluation

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the satisfaction of patients with conventional and implant-supported total dentures and to examine the effect of demographic characteristics on satisfaction. Materials and Methods: A total of 80 patients, 49 females and 31 males, who underwent upper-lower classical complete dentures and upper-lower implant-supported complete dentures at Atatürk University Faculty of Dentistry in 2024 were included in the study. Questionnaires were distributed to the patients including socio-demographic characteristics (gender, age, marital status, family status, education level, income level) and evaluation of satisfaction with their dentures. Responses were asked to be reported as dissatisfied/satisfied/very satisfied. Chi-square test and Fisher's exact chi-square test were used to compare qualitative data. Results: The mean age of the 80 patients was 61.3% female and 38.7% male. The proportion of patients with a high school education and above who used implant-supported prostheses was significantly higher than those who used conventional complete dentures.(p < 0,05)There was no statistically significant difference between the satisfaction levels of patients using implant-supported prostheses and patients using conventional complete dentures in terms of esthetics, chewing, speech, retention, and comfort. (p > 0,05)
