The Impact of Rugae Reproduction on Complete Dentures Patients' Satisfaction
The Impact of Rugae Reproduction on Complete Dentures Patients' Satisfaction: A Randomized Crossover Clinical Trial
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
The use of dentures could impact the patients' phonetics which could impact their speech. Phonetics could be affected by multiple factors such as having a proper occlusal vertical dimension, proper occlusal plane, correctly positioned anterior and posterior teeth, and adequate contouring of the palatal surface. The lack of the rugae area on the polished areas of the dentures has been also suggested to impact phonetics in denture patients.
The palatal rugae, refer to asymmetrical and irregular elevations of the mucosa located in the anterior third of the palate, on each side of the median palatal raphe and behind the incisive papilla. In addition to enhancing phonetics, the precise reproduction of the rugae in the complete dentures has been suggested to enhance mastication, deglutition and better taste perception. However, these suggestions were based on empirical evidence.
Many studies have described methods for replicating the patients rague on complete dentures, however there are no clinical study to ascertain or negate the impact of this procedure. Therefore, the aim of this randomized crossover clinical trial was to compare patients' reported satisfaction with their complete dentures and oral health related quality of life, when provided with a denture with a reproduction of their rugae on the anterior palatal area as opposed to a polished palatal surface. The null hypothesis was that there would be no difference in patients' reported satisfaction rate using visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oral Health Impact Profile for Edentulous Patients (OHIP-EDENT) Questionnaire response between the two types of palatal contours after using each type for one month post-delivery.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: With reproduction of palatal rugae
Participants will receive maxillary complete dentures with a reproduction of the patients's own palatal rugae to the palatal surface.
|
The removal of the palatal rugae from the complete maxillary denture palatal surface to become a smooth surface
|
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Without reproduction of palatal rugae (smooth surface)
Participants will receive maxillary complete dentures with smooth palatal surfaces without a reproduction of the patients's own palatal rugae to the palatal surface.
|
The addition and reproduction of the patient's own palatal rugae to the complete maxillary denture palatal surface.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Patients' reported overall satisfaction with their dentures
Time Frame: 60 days
|
Patients overall satisfaction rate using visual analogue scale (a measurement instrument represented in a straight horizontal line of fixed length, 100 mm.
The ends are defined as the extreme limits of the parameter to be measured (satisfied and unsatisfied).
Orientated from the left 'best' to the right 'worst').
|
60 days
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Patients reported oral health related quality of life
Time Frame: 60 days
|
Patients reported oral health related quality of life using the Oral Health Impact Profile for Edentulous Patients (OHIP-EDENT) Questionnaire; The OHIP-EDENT index has 20 items and uses a 0-5 scale where 0 is never and 5 is always.
The minimum overall score can be 20 and maximum 100.

60 days
|
Patients' reported overall satisfaction with their dentures during speaking.
Time Frame: 60 days

The ends are defined as the extreme limits of the parameter to be measured (satisfied and unsatisfied).
Orientated from the left 'best' to the right 'worst').
