AB - Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the influencing factors of removable dentures satisfaction in the elderly.
Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 256 elderly in Jeollanam-do from September 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics of the subjects, denture related characteristics systemic health characteristics and dental health behavior. Removable dentures satisfaction was adapted from Ban. The questionnaire for Removable dentures satisfaction included general treatment satisfaction, masticatory function satisfaction, denture retention satisfaction, aesthetic satisfaction measured by Likert 5 scale. Cronbach’s alpha was 0.850 in the study. Data were analyzed for a t-test, one-way ANOVA and multiple regression analysis by using SPSS(SPSS 18.0, USA) program.
Results: According to subjective and systemic health condition and oral health condition, there was a statistically significant increase in general satisfaction of treatment, masticatory satisfaction of function, denture satisfaction of retention, aesthetic satisfaction. The overall satisfaction for removable denture showed a significant improvement. In the multiple regression analysis, variation of removable denture satisfaction was positively associated with oral health status{good(b=0.736, p=0.000)}, denture treatment services{dental hospital⋅clinic(b=0.327, p=0.023)}, and systemic health status{good(b=0.241, p=0.047)}.
Conclusions: Satisfaction of removable dentures may have a positive impact on oral health condition, hospital type, and associated systemic disease. It is necessary to develop incremental care programs for oral health and systemic health and to make public opinion to encourage the program.
