Evaluation of Hygiene in Patients with Implant Supported Overdentures - An In-Vivo Study
Main Article Content
Abstract
Maintaining optimal oral hygiene is essential for the long-term success of implant-supported overdentures. The Denture Cleanliness Index (DCI) is a reliable tool to assess denture hygiene and bacterial plaque accumulation. In this study, we evaluated the hygiene status of implant-supported overdentures in 30 patients using the DCI. The findings showed that majority of patients had plaque accumulation on the impression surface of dentures within one year of using the dentures. Patients were given the denture cleaning instructions according to the DCI scores.
