Abstract

Satisfaction levels in edentulous patients before and after receiving conventional complete dentures, focusing on smile confidence, eating comfort and pronunciation is of interest. Hence, a cross-sectional analysis of 100 patients (aged 52–75 years) using a structured questionnaire was completed to assess post-treatment improvements. Confidence in smiling increased from 8% to 62%, while eating comfort and pronunciation improved in 67% and 58% of patients, respectively. Thus, transformative impact of complete dentures on both functionality and psychosocial well-being is highlighted. Therefore, comprehensive care and patient education are essential to optimizing treatment outcomes.
