This cohort study (n = 83) investigated whether patients with implant-stabilized overdentures would demonstrate less impact on daily life, would have less difficulty in the mastication of different types of food, and would generally be more satisfied than patients with conventional complete dentures. The groups were comparable for gender, age of dentures, and duration of edentulism. The patients were interviewed using a questionnaire, which included the Oral Impacts on Daily Performances (OIDP) sociodental indicator. Patients with implant-stabilized overdentures were more satisfied with the comfort of their dentures, could eat a wide range of food items with less difficulty, and experienced less impact on daily life than patients with conventional complete dentures. The findings of this study support the need to consider implant-stabilized overdentures in the treatment of edentulous patients.
这项队列研究（n = 83）调查了种植体支持的覆盖义齿患者对日常生活的影响是否更小、咀嚼不同类型食物时是否更轻松，以及总体上是否比传统全口义齿患者更满意。两组在性别、义齿使用年限和无牙时间方面具有可比性。通过问卷调查对患者进行访谈，问卷包括口腔对日常表现影响（OIDP）社会口腔学指标。与传统全口义齿患者相比，种植体支持的覆盖义齿患者对义齿舒适度更满意，能更轻松地食用多种食物，且对日常生活的影响更小。本研究结果支持在无牙患者的治疗中考虑使用种植体支持的覆盖义齿。
