Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Verify whether the use of complete denture during sleep changes the degree of sleep apnea through the polysomnography exam, sleeping with the prostheses (CP) and 90 days without the prostheses (SP). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To assess whether sleep quality improves with the use of complete dentures using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Berlin questionnaire, and Epworth sleepiness scale (EES) in the two proposed times.;Check if there is an improvement in the quality of life of the rehabilitated participants using the OHIP-EDENT questionnaire, in the two proposed times.;To verify through computed tomography the influence of the use of complete dentures in the amplify/ volume of the pharyngeal space and changes in different anatomical structures, in the two proposed times.;Check if there is an improvement in the cardiovascular parameters by measuring blood pressure and heart rate, in the two proposed times. Assess the sociodemographic characteristics, systemic conditions, and oral health status of participants diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea in the database of the sleep and heart institute.;Using the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire, the participants' quality of life was evaluated.;To evaluate, through spirometry, the influence of the use of complete dentures on the parameters of forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), mean expiratory flow (FEF25-75%) and peak expiratory flow ( PEF/FEF), with the prostheses (CP) and without the prostheses (SP) | — |
