Objectives. This study investigated on the severity of dry mouth in the elderly and the association between dry mouth(low, moderate and high) with pre and post wearing denture satisfaction. Methods. Data were obtained from a cross-sectional survey of 102 elderly people (mean age=69.3). Participants in the study were recruited when they attended the public health center in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. Data were collected by means of a personal interview from March 14 through to May 23, 2009. Pre and post wearing denture satisfaction was measured by the 24-items and dry mouth was measured by the 4-items. The data was analysed with t-test, One-way ANOVA, and Logistic regression using the SPSS program. Results. Regarding perception of dry mouth, the subjects achieved a mean of 6.13 out of a maximum 12 points. Scores were categorised as high (8∼12), medium (5∼7) or low (1∼4) and the propotion were 24.5% (9.56), 42.2% (5.81) and 33.3% (4.00) respectively. Those who were older and had fewer natural teeth felt that their perception of dry mouth was more severe. A logistic regression analysis showed that the subjects` perception of dry mouth had a significant impact on their gender (OR=2.73), comfort (OR=0.21), aesthetic appreciation (OR=7.56) satisfaction. Conclusions. Based on the findings, the perception of dry mouth has a significant and negative impact on denture satisfaction. These results suggest that oral health promotion should be considered various factors related dry mouth in the elderly with removable denture.
