Comparison of Masticatory Efficiency Between Complete Denture With Zero-degree Teeth and Anatomic Teeth in Patients With Severely Resorbed Ridge

Not Applicable
Conditions
Edentulous
Interventions
Device: zero degree teeth
Device: anatomic teeth
Registration Number
NCT02359955
Lead Sponsor
Haixin Qian
Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate masticatory efficiency of the zero-degree teeth complete denture in treatment of edentulous patients of severely resorbed ridge.Patients will be crossed over to be treated with zero-degree teeth complete denture and anatomic teeth complete denture. For each patient, the masticatory efficiency and electromyography with different denture will be recorded and analysis.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
EMG (Masseters EMG Are Recorded After Patient Wears Complete Denture for Three Months)three month

the masseters EMG are recorded after patient wears complete denture for three months,EMGs of masseters of 20 chewing strokes were recorded in term of value of amp and duration, duration here is reporteds the average value from 20 chewing strokes in units of "millisecond".

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Masticatory Efficiency Indexthree months

the masticatory efficiency is tested after patient wears complete denture for three months,each patient was given 4 gram dry peanuts, chewed for 20 seconds, then spat in the receptacle and rinsed mouth residue. The peanut particles were diluted to 1000 ml with distilled water, stirred for 1 minutes and standing for 2 minutes to suspension. Absorbance values(av) were measured at the wavelength of 590nm in a spectrophotometer. The higher the masticatory efficiency, the smaller the peanut particles, then the higher the av value, vice versa. Value of av was used to represent masticatory efficiency. For each patient, the test was conducted three times, and the average value of av was taken as the final result. A lower masticatory efficiency index indicates larger peanut particle size observed.
