Background: Health practitioners around the world are now dealing with
increasing health problems, including oral disease. One of them is tooth loss.
Losing teeth can cause problems or disturbances in the main functions of teeth
(mastication, aesthetics and phonetics). These conditions can be overcome by
using denture. If the loss of untreated teeth doesn’t restored using denture, it will cause the function of the missing tooth can not be restored, which will result in disruption of nutritional status and quality of life of the elderly. This study aimed to determine the relationship of tooth loss with nutritional status in elderly society in the Penatahan village Penebel Tabanan.
Methods: The research was an observational analytic study with cross sectional
research design. Total sampling used with total sample 109 people. The data
were collected by filling the dental chart, measuring IMT and interview using the
OHIP-14 questionnaire.
Results: The results showed 65.1% respondents had loss <6 teeth, 42.2%
respondents had obesity, 75.2% respondents observed poor quality of life. Data
analyzed using kolmogorov smirnov obtained p = 0,952 for relationship between
tooth loss with nuturional status and p = 0.676 for relationship between use
of denture with nutritional status. Chi square used to test relationship between
tooth loss with quality of life (p= 0,735) and use of denture with quality of life
showed p = 0,139.
Conclusions: The conclusion is there is no relationship between tooth loss
and use of denture with nutritional status and quality of life in elderly society in
Penatahan Village Penebel Tabanan
