https://www.selleckchem.com/products/pci-32765.html The purpose of the present study was to explore the factors related to oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in elderly patients who underwent prosthetic treatment with removable dentures through several objective and subjective examinations and to analyze their interrelationships. The current study involved 78 denture wearers, aged 65 years or above, who underwent treatment at the clinic of prosthodontics and undertook routine checkups. The present study used eight age-matched patients with healthy dentition as controls. The following items were evaluated OHRQoL (Oral Health Impact Profile), main occluding area, maximal occlusal force, masticatory performance, and masticatory ability. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was used to assess the correlation between the OHIP score and each item and multiple linear regression analysis with the backward elimination method was used to analyze the factors affecting the OHIP score (α = 0.05). The OHIP summary score was significantly correlated with the number of occlusal supports, number of remaining teeth, maximal occlusal force, and the masticatory ability score. The multiple regression analysis revealed that the number of occlusal supports, the number of remaining upper teeth, whether the upper main occluding area was the remaining tooth or not, and the masticatory ability score were the significant independent variables that affected the OHIP summary scores. The present study verified the relationship between the OHRQoL and the occlusion of remaining teeth or the items derived from the main occluding areas. The current results suggest that retaining the maxillary first molar is a key factor in the OHRQoL. The present study verified the relationship between the OHRQoL and the occlusion of remaining teeth or the items derived from the main occluding areas. The current results suggest that retaining the maxillary first molar is a key factor in the OHRQoL. To me
