Abstract
The purpose this study was to study stress resistance in elderly and senile patients with missing teeth against the background of oral xerostomia.
Material and methods. 80 patients aged 60 to 90 years with missing teeth due to xerostomia were examined and orthopedic treatment with removable plate dentures was carried out. Of these, 32 (40%) patients were male and 48 (60%) were female. Stress tolerance was assessed according to the test of S. Cohen and G. Willanson. Stress resistance was determined based on the data obtained from the test results.
Results. Analysis of the obtained data on stress resistance in the studied patients according to the test of S. Cohen and G. Willianson showed that 35% of the subjects showed satisfactory, 57.5% – poor and 7.5% – very poor resistance to stress. In all study groups, the results did not have significant differences. 28 patients (8 men, 20 women) showed satisfactory stress resistance, 46 (18 men and 28 women) patients had poor stress resistance, and 6 male patients had very poor stress resistance.
Conclusion. The analysis of the stress resistance data obtained in elderly patients with missing teeth indicates a depressive state of the subjects, especially in male patients, which may directly be the cause of dry mouth or a consequence of this problem.
