Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Florida, 2005.

This dissertation investigated a fundamental question that had not been addressed in the literature to date: "What is the dynamic impact of prosthodontic services on multiple measures of oral health outcomes?" To accomplish this overall purpose, we used data obtained from the Florida Dental Care Study (FDCS), which is a population-based longitudinal cohort study of self-reported oral health and dental care. The sample included 873 persons who had at least 1 tooth and were 45 years old or older. The Andersen Behavioral Model of Health Services Use and the Multidimensional Conceptual Model of Oral Health framed our analyses.

520 $a This dissertation investigated a fundamental question that had not been addressed in the literature to date: "What is the dynamic impact of prosthodontic services on multiple measures of oral health outcomes?" To accomplish this overall purpose, we used data obtained from the Florida Dental Care Study (FDCS), which is a population-based longitudinal cohort study of self-reported oral health and dental care. The sample included 873 persons who had at least 1 tooth and were 45 years old or older. The Andersen Behavioral Model of Health Services Use and the Multidimensional Conceptual Model of Oral Health framed our analyses.
520 $a Objectives of our study were (1) to quantify the patterns of prosthodontic services use and changes in self-rated oral health outcomes; (2) to quantify the impact of prosthodontic services use on satisfaction with chewing ability; (3) to quantify the impact of prosthodontic services use on satisfaction with dental appearance; and (4) to quantify the impact of prosthodontic services use on self-rated overall oral health. Descriptive statistics, cross-sectional ordinal logistic regression, and longitudinal binomial logistic regression with correction for selection bias using the instrumental variable approach were used to answer the research questions.
520 $a Results showed that fixed prosthodontic services were more common than removable prosthodontic services. Most people were satisfied with their chewing ability and dental appearance, and rated their overall oral health positively. The finished removable prosthodontic treatment was associated with an improved satisfaction with chewing ability and satisfaction with dental appearance. Our results did not show any beneficial effect of fixed prosthodontic treatment.
520 $a Our findings document the therapeutic effectiveness of removable prosthodontic treatment but not fixed prosthodontic treatment. These results suggest switching to the less expensive removable prosthodontic treatment from the more expensive fixed prosthodontic treatment will result in a noticeable saving in health care expenditure without compromising health outcomes.
