ABSTRACT
Background:
The aim of the study was to determine the oral stereognostic ability of completely edentulous individuals through identification of different forms.Methods:
Twenty edentulous subjects were selected for the study, 5 large and 5 small geometrical forms were selected and placed intraorally and percentage identification was tabulated.Results:
The mean percentage of the correct identification of large forms (91.64±8.71) and the mean percentage of correct identification of the small forms (76.27±11.58), using Student independent ‘t’ test, statistically significant difference was found between the two values (p<0.05).Conclusion:
the discriminating ability of edentulous and dentulous was not statistically different, although the differences between large and small forms were significant.
