STUDY OF ORAL HEALTH AND SUPPORTIVE STRUCTURES FOR PROSTHETIC RESTORATIONS IN METHADONE MAINTENANCE THERAPY BENEFICIARIES AND DRUG USERS.

As a result, we can conclude that both groups have a high need for prosthetic rehabilitation. However, the condition of abutment teeth and periodontal tissues is not suitable, requiring adjunctive therapy. Methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) beneficiaries show slightly better conditions of these structures, but they also have a lower number of abutment teeth and significant bone resorption.
