Abstract
The aim of this survey was to analyze the policy adopted by dentists concerning the periodic recalls of patients wearing removable partial dentures (PRD). A sample of 100 dentists was surveyed by means of a questionnaire and data were entered into a computer database (Epi Info 6.04). After placement of PRD, the recalls for adjustment were 2-day (25%) and 7-day (39%); the most reported procedures were the evaluation of teeth and denture hygiene, compression areas and occlusion (49%). Six-month recall period was advised by 65% of the professionals. 54% reported that their patients returned to the dental office only when they consider it necessary. Among the surveyed clinicians, 71% advised further control to check oral care and adaptation of the prosthesis to the residual ridge. The procedures most commonly performed on patients’ recall were scaling (77%), restoration (63%) and hygiene instruction (61%). In conclusion, the findings of the conducted survey disclosed that most of professionals prescribe regular recallmainly after six months, to evaluate teeth and prosthesis hygiene, compression areas and occlusion. The most common procedures performed on the recall appointments are scaling, oral hygiene instruction and restoration.
