Abstract

The aim of this study is to evaluate oral health-related quality of life and patient satisfaction in completely edentulous patients, when restored with fixed hybrid or removable telescopic implant supported prosthesis in maxillary and mandibular arches simultaneously. 60 patients were randomized to receive either a fixed-hybrid (group H) or a removable implant-supported prosthesis (group T). They were then asked to answer the oral health related quality of life (OHIP-14) questionnaire and a patient satisfaction questionnaire at 2 weeks, 3, 6 and 12months post-prosthetic insertion. Twelve months following prosthetic insertion, all domains of OHIP-14 and patient satisfaction improved for both prosthetic groups. No statistically significant difference was found between both groups in all domains of OHIP-14. At 12 months, the total OHIP-14 scores of Group H and group T were 5 ± 7.151 and 2.63 ± 2.973, respectively (mean ± SD) p = 1. There was also no statistically significant difference in total patient satisfaction scores between the 2 groups with H and groups T scoring 43.38 ± 10.487 and 39.75 ± 10.236 (mean ± SD), respectively, with p-value equals 0.246. The only exception was the domain of satisfaction with esthetics at p≤.05, favoring the fixed-hybrid group.
