Differences in oral stereognosis between complete denture wearers.

To better understand patients' relative satisfaction with complete dentures, differences in oral stereognostic perception, based on the identification of small objects placed in the mouth, were investigated. It was found that the oral stereognosis test applied is reliable for measuring patients' oral stereognostic perception. However, the positive correlation of other studies concerning the relationship between oral stereognosis and satisfaction with complete dentures was not confirmed in this study.
