The importance of placing identification marks on dentures has long been acknowledged by the dental profession. More recently, following the fatalities at the Bradford City, England, football club fire, the need for marking dentures has been made more public. This paper outlines the different types of marking systems available and describes a survey on denture wearers to investigate their attitude toward the placement of identification marks on dentures. Results show that few dentures are marked at manufacture but that wearers are in favor of having their name on their denture. Of the 63 subjects sampled, 93.5% did not know that identification marks could be placed on dentures. The profession must be encouraged to routinely label all dentures at manufacture.
牙科行业早就认识到在假牙上放置识别标记的重要性。最近，在英国布拉德福德市足球俱乐部火灾造成人员伤亡之后，假牙标记的必要性更加引起了公众的关注。本文概述了现有的不同类型的标记系统，并描述了一项针对假牙佩戴者的调查，以研究他们对在假牙上放置识别标记的态度。结果表明，很少有假牙在制造时就做了标记，但佩戴者赞成在假牙上写上自己的名字。在抽样的63名受试者中，93.5%的人不知道假牙上可以放置识别标记。必须鼓励该行业在假牙制造时就常规地给所有假牙贴上标签。
