Resumen

GARCIA DEL PRADO, Gema Lauzardo; GUTIERREZ HERNANDEZ, María Elena  y  ROBLEDO FERNANDEZ, Mirna. Control de higiene bucal en pacientes geriátricos portadores de sobredentaduras. Rev Cubana Estomatol [online]. 2002, vol.39, n.3, pp.396-416. ISSN 0034-7507.

Due to the importance of taking oral hygiene preventive measures to benefit the elderly, we proposed ourselves as an objective to determine the influence of controlled oral hygiene in geriatric patients wearing overdentures. Our universe was composed of 20 patients aged 60 of both sexes, who had been wearing removable partial denture for a year and received rehabilitating treatment in our service, endorsed by their medical histories, which are in the archive of the Dental Faculty of the Higher Institute of Medical Sciences of Havana City. These patients were in full mental and physical capacity according to their age.

Palabras clave : ORAL HYGIENE; DENTURE, PARTIAL, REMOVABLE; MOUTH DISEASES [prevention & control]; AGED; GERIATRICS.
