NCT05493579

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the effects of a mandibular implant-supported overdenture with a mandibular complete denture on electromyographic activity, brain activity, and cognitive performance in edentulous patients. Ten patients who are entirely edentulous and did not wear dentures will be chosen. To assess brain activity and cognitive function, electroencephalograms, the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and electromyographic examinations of the temporalis and masseter muscles will be performed prior to complete denture construction, one and three months after complete denture construction, and one and three months after implant supported overdenture insertion, respectively.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Brain Activity (EEG)

    An assessment of the patient's brain activity will be done. The waves obtained during all phases of assessment will be analyzed, and the software will separate the alpha waves, which occur in the frequency range of 8-12 Hz, evaluating their amplitude. The mean amplitude (in microvolts) of alpha waves was obtained.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Cognitive Function (MMSE)

    3 months

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Muscle Activity (EMG)
