ABSTRACT

Mexico is among the countries with a high frequency range of oral diseases, within them, dental caries and periodontal disease. This situation presents a great number of Mexicans who lose their teeth and are partially or fully edentulous which may limit the ability to communicate, eat or affect the psychosocial dimension of the individual. This research was developed under the premise that the quality of life measured by the Index GOHAI is associated with the need for oral prosthesis. Less than half of the sample prosthesis need new or repair them. The age group that most needed prosthesis was 50 to 65 years. In the present study we found that partially dentate patients without prostheses or prosthetic unsatisfactory index had lower quality of life for patients who did not need oral prosthesis.
