ABSTRACT

Tooth loss can be disturbing and upsetting that requires psychological and social modification. The traditional approach toward prosthetic dentistry is based on the principle of replacement of missing tooth, Where as recently requirements such as aesthetics and functional importance are considered more. The attitude of patients towards tooth loss is ever changing. Adults have more noteworthy desires of their dental health than previously. However with the advent of new technology, more restorative options have become available, thereby changing the demand for prosthodontic treatment.Implant treatment has come into focus since this treatment option has provided excellent long term results by increased retention, stability, functional efficiency and quality of life. MATERIALS AND METHODS : This study contains a sample set of 100.

RESULT: this study shows very minimal knowledge among the patients about replacement of missing teeth.
