SAMMEND: The wearing of even technically perfect full dentures is associated
with a significant deterioration of most, if not all, oral functions.
The fact that between 85 and 90 per cent of patients receiving new
and technically well made dentures and between 65 and 75 per cent of
patients with older dentures are generally satisfied with the
treatment result is therefore more of a tribute to human adaption
than to prosthodontic skill. Research has shown that variables
claimed to play an important role in patient acceptance of full
dentures, such as the quality of the dentures, the oral condition,
the patient-dentist relationship, the patients' attitude toward
dentures, the patients' personality, socio-economic factors, demograp
hic variables, previous denture experience and oral stereognosis,
have in fact no or negligible effects in this respect. Nor has the
degree of prediction been appreciably improved bycombining the
effects of such variables. Variables of theoretical importance for
acceptance of dentures such as the patients' motory ability and the
quality and quantity of saliva have still to be studied. At the
present time research has yet failed to furnish the clinician with a
practical method where by patients who are unlikely to accept full
dentures can be i dentified with any degree of certainty. The
clinician has therefore still no option but to base his prediction on
an individual estimate of his patient's adaptive ability.

TITTEL : Longitudinal relationship between incisal occlusion and incisal tooth
wear.

SAMMEND: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the longitudinal
relationship between incisal wear of central incisors and the size of
vertical overbite (OB) and horizontal overjet (OJ).Stone casts of 51
subjects were used for the determinations. Casts were obtained when
the subjects were 15 and 27 years old. Statistical analysis was
performed with the t test for paired samples, the chi-square test of
association, Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient, and
Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Both overbite and overjet
diminished after 12 years, and incisal wear increased. It was
concluded that increase in age, incisal wear, vertical overbite and
incisal occlusion (OB/OJ) are clinical predictors of wear of maxill a
ry and mandibular central incisors in adolescents.
