The study of the condition of the oral prosthesis field epithelium in persons wearing dentures of polypropylene and acrylic bases.

The goal of the study was to make a comparative assessment of the effect of the partial removable polypropylene and acrylic dentures on the prosthetic bed epithelium. The material of this study was smears-scrapes of the oral mucosa obtained from 316 patients. The results of the investigation of the morphological cell composition of the oral mucosa epithelium obtained from the prosthesis field and after prosthesis show a negative influence of the acrylic denture bases on the epithelium of the oral mucosa. The most optimal was the correlation of epithelial cells in the oral mucosa in the patients with dentures from "Tipplen R 359", processed in plasma of the glow discharge.
