One Year Clinical Follow-Up of Oral Health Status in Cobalt-Chromium Removable Partial Denture Wearers
Hana M. Al-AlSheikh*,Eman M. Al Hamdan
Objective: To investigate the effect of conventional removable partial dentures (RPDs) on oral tissue in terms of periodontal condition and caries incidence for Saudi female patients in Riyadh.
Methods: This is a clinical trial in which 61 female patients were treated with conventional RPDs in College of Dentistry, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A base line examination was done one week after denture insertion which included plaque index, probing depth, tooth mobility, and caries. The same examination was performed in a recall visit one year later. Data were statically analyzed and significance level was set to 0.05.
Results: A statistically significant difference was detected between base line examination and the recall in plaque index, probing depth, mobility, and caries incidence (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Plaque index, probing depth, tooth mobility, and caries increased after one year of wearing Cobalt Chromium RPDs.
