Satisfaction of adults with the consequences of gunshot wounds of the maxillofacial area by the results of oral rehabilitation

Satisfaction of adults is analyzed with the results of oral rehabilitation with the elimination of the consequences of gunshot wounds in the maxillofacial area, accompanied by a loss of more than 8 teeth on the jaws. It is established that such patients experience serious physical and mental suffering due to loss of teeth and malfunction of chewing, which do not allow them to feel healthy. It was revealed that there were more completely satisfied with the treatment with the use of non- removable or conditionally removable dental prosthesis on artificial supports (dental and zygomatic implants) than among patients who used removable dentures and dentures with restraining or support-retaining clasps. Mainly due to the fact that dental prosthesis based on implants in comparison with removable dental prosthesis largely restore chewing function and cause patients less inconvenience. A week after completion of oral rehabilitation, 6.1% of patients using removable dental prosthesis and dento-facial prosthesis with restorative or support-retaining clasps were satisfied with its results, 61,5% of patients - in part, 10,3% of patients found it difficult to answer this question, and 23,1% of patients were not satisfied with the results of oral rehabilitation. 63,6% of patients who used fixed or conditionally removable dental prosthesis on artificial supports (dental and zygomatic implants) were completely satisfied with the results of oral rehabilitation, 22,7% of patients - in part, 9,09% of patients - were not satisfied and 4,5% of patients found it difficult to answer. In general, the use of modern structures of fixed and conditionally removable dental prostheses on dental and zygomatic implants for oral rehabilitation allows to achieve full satisfaction with the results of dental orthopedic treatment in 81,8% of patients, which indicates the need for widespread use of dental prosthesis on artificial supports in oral rehabilitation wounded in the maxillofacial area.
