[Adjustment of complete dentures. Have oral stereognosis and denture quality a predictable value?].

The denture complaints of 397 complete denture wearing participants were assessed. The quality of the dentures and denture bearing surfaces were professionally scored as well. Combination of these scores gave a specific denture quality, the so-called 'prosthetic condition'. The oral stereognostic capability was recorded with an Oral Stereognosis Test. There was no correlation between denture complaints and the results of the Oral Stereognosis Test, nor between denture complaints and prosthetic condition.
