Abstract
An epidemiological study was carried out on the population of 59 subjects aged 35-4 (30 women, 29 men) living in Lublin. An evaluation of dentition status and degree of provision for prosthetic needs was done. We observed a remarkable frequency of dental caries, a large percentage of subjects with missing or damaged teeth (76.27%), and inadequate advancement of prosthetic treatment in 62.71% of subjects. Greater care for prosthetic treatment was observed among women than among men. Gaps within the maxilla were more often protected than those within the mandible.
