| Abstract:
|
Systemic disease plays an important role in deciding a treatment protocol for a patient. Same way, designing a prosthesis also requires consideration of the systemic disease of the individual to deliver the patient a satisfactory denture. The aim of the study is to analyse the prevalence of systemic disorders among complete denture wearers. Data was collected after going through 86,000 patients records from June 2019 to April 2020. Total sample size of the study is 354 patients. The data was tabulated in SPSS and variables were verified. Chi-square test was done for the data tabulated. The analysis showed that most of the prostheses were fabricated for male patients and the most prevalent systemic disease was diabetes mellitus. The reason may be due to ethnicity and lifestyle habits. However the study showed positive correlation but was not significant since p=0.456. This study concluded that diabetes mellitus is the most common systemic disease among the population studied
