Elderly people deserve respect and the right to receive appropriate medical assistance. This work was undertaken to determine the stomatognathic status of residents of Care Homes, condition of their dental prostheses, their main dental problems, expectations and needs, with emphasis on aspects of prosthetic treatment and psychosocial status.
Altogether, 135 residents of the Care Homes were studied. It was found that the stomatognathic status of the residents was disappointing. The residents had problems with hygiene, their prosthetic appliances were in a poor condition, and they also experinced problems when using the prostheses. Prosthetic problems were noted in almost every resident of Care Homes.
Expectations as to dental care cannot be fulfilled without changing the national health care system. A relationship between satisfaction in life and extent of prosthetic needs, condition of prosthetic appliances, and problems with their use was found. A positive life history plays an important role in past dental care.
The psychosocial status of residents of Care Homes was poor.
老年人应得到尊重并有权利获得适当的医疗救助。开展这项工作是为了确定养老院居民的口颌系统状况、假牙状况、主要牙齿问题、期望和需求，重点关注修复治疗和心理社会状况方面。
共研究了135名养老院居民。发现居民的口颌系统状况令人失望。居民存在卫生问题，假牙装置状况不佳，使用假牙时也遇到问题。几乎每个养老院居民都存在修复问题。
如果不改变国家医疗保健系统，对牙齿护理的期望就无法实现。发现生活满意度与修复需求程度、假牙装置状况及其使用问题之间存在关联。积极的生活经历在过去的牙齿护理中起着重要作用。
养老院居民的心理社会状况较差。
