Abstract:

It is proposed to estimate the prevalence of perceived need for dental prosthesis total among seniors (65 to 74 years) Brazilians toothless, as well as identify its associated factors. This is a cross-sectional study based on the national survey of oral health conditions of the Brazilian population, called SB Brazil-2010. The dependent variable was the perceived need to Prosthodontics total, considering the purchase of new or replacement of the existing prosthesis. Descriptive analyses were conducted, bivariate and multiple. 3514 elderly were included, of these, 2039 (55.0%) elderly self realized the need of complete denture. The self perception of the need for complete denture was higher among those who needed dental prosthesis and who were dissatisfied with their oral health conditions. In addition to the high prevalence of self perception of the need for prosthesis identified, the results identified that normative and subjective conditions of oral health remained associated with this self perception among elderly Brazilians.
