Brief Summary

To evaluate the influence of restoring lost posterior occlusal contacts with removable partial denture (RPD) on the brain activity and cognitive function in controlled type 2 diabetic patients

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Flexible partial denture

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: EEG and MMSE measurements before receiving RPD

EEG and MMSE were measured for all participant before wearing the removable partial dentures.

Device: Flexible partial denture
removable partial dentures (RPDs) were fabricated using thermoplastic resins (flexible RPDs). EEG and MMSE were evaluated before denture delivery and after one month of denture wear.

Experimental: EEG and MMSE measurements after receiving RPD

EEG and MMSE were measured for all participant after wearing the removable partial dentures

Device: Flexible partial denture
removable partial dentures (RPDs) were fabricated using thermoplastic resins (flexible RPDs). EEG and MMSE were evaluated before denture delivery and after one month of denture wear.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Brain activity measurement in controlled type 2 diabetic patients wearing RPD. [For each participant the RPD should be worn for one month.]

    RPDs were fabricated for each participant using thermoplastic resin. The brain activity was assessed using EEG by measuring the alpha waves (Dα/Hz) in controlled type 2 diabetic patients wearing RPDs. EEG records were obtained before denture delivery and one month after denture wear.

  2. Cognitive function assessment in controlled type 2 diabetic patients wearing RPD. [For each participant the RPD should be worn for one month.]

    For the same participates the cognitive function was assessed via MMSE questionnaire. MMSE consists of 12 questions with maximum scoring of 30. The measurements were obtained before denture delivery and one month after denture wear.
