About
Patients over the age of 60 who do not currently have any removable dentures but require them will be included in the study. Patients who will receive complete dentures and those who will receive partial dentures will be assessed in separate groups. Before the fabrication of the dentures, the Mini-Mental State Examination Test (MMSE), the physical normative value test (TUG), and the Oral Functional Capacity (OFC) scoring will be conducted. No intervention will be made to the treatment during the prosthetic treatment process.
The same questionnaires will be administered again three weeks after the completion of the prosthetic treatments. The impact of the use of removable dentures on test results will be evaluated. Additionally, during this session, patients will complete a patient satisfaction test regarding their dentures (OHIP-14 for patients with a removable partial denture indication, and OHIP-edent for patients with a complete denture indication). Patients will be called back after three months, and all tests will be repeated. The relationship between the Mini-Mental State Examination, the TUG test, and the OFC test with patient satisfaction will be assessed and any changes in test scores related to denture use will be investigated.
