ABSTRACT

Aims: Due to the high success rates and predictability of dental implants, their usage in the rehabilitation of partially dentate and edentulous patients is increasing year by years. The aim of the survey was to assess the patient awareness, source of information and acceptance of dental implants as a treatment modality for replacement of missing teeth among the Delhi population. Materials and Methods: A survey was conducted among the patients visiting various private dental clinics using a self-explanatory questionnaire. The questionnaires were prepared in English and Hindi language to enable better understanding and completion. Results: Among the 1013 response retrieved, 772 were aware of dental implant treatment. Among the 81% of the respondents who knew dental implants can be used to replace missing teeth, 19.5% opted not to receive dental implant treatment. About 81.8% of the respondents expressed that dental implant treatment was unaffordable. The cost and associated surgery was a major disadvantage and deterrent to this modality. The dentists were the main source of information regarding the dental implant treatment modality, followed by friends and electronic media. Conclusion: The survey concluded that 76.2% of the Delhi population was aware of dental implant treatment in delhi, mainly from dentists. Having dental insurance would most definitely raise the willingness of respondents for receiving dental implant treatment.
