Patients' Experiences With Complete Tooth Loss and Conventional Complete Dentures Use: A Phenomenological Study

This study contributes important insights for completely edentulous patients, conventional denture wearers and oral health practitioners into the complex emotional and functional dimensions of edentulism and denture use. The findings emphasise the value of patient-centred care approaches that account for individual coping strategies, personal narratives and long-term experiences with prosthetic rehabilitation.
