Abstract

Tooth loss is a common oral health problem experienced by the elderly, which leads to decreased masticatory function, speech ability, oral comfort, and psychosocial aspects. The use of dentures serves as a rehabilitative effort to restore oral function in older adults. This study aimed to analyze the differences in the quality of life of the elderly based on denture-wearing status in Kutisari, Surabaya. This study applied a quantitative comparative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 46 elderly individuals were selected using purposive sampling, consisting of 23 denture users and 23 non-denture users. Quality of life was measured using the GOHAI instrument, covering the dimensions of physical function, pain/discomfort, and psychosocial aspects. Data analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney test. The results showed that the average GOHAI score for the denture user group was 2.4 (good category), while the non-user group was 2.1 (fair category). The Mann-Whitney test confirmed a significant difference in quality of life between the two groups (), where the user group had a higher mean rank (27.78) compared to the non-user group (19.22). Elderly denture users have a better perception of quality of life; therefore, the use of dentures needs to be encouraged as an effort to improve oral health in the elderly.
