Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate cortical brain activity using ElectroEncephaloGram [EEG], Active Tactile Sensibility [ATS], and to assess Oral Health Related Quality of Life using a validated OHIP-14 index, and to compare and correlate the above parameters among patients treated with complete dentures versus implant prosthesis and within same patients before with complete dentures; and after i.e. with implant prosthesis. Timepoint: At 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months post prosthesis installation.
