Abstract
Awareness, attitudes, knowledge and preferences regarding tooth replacement among 200 adults aged 30-70 years using a validated 26-item questionnaire is of interest. Results showed that 66% of participants had a positive attitude towards treatment and 5% of participants showed negative awareness, while 38% demonstrated good awareness and 29% had poor understanding of available options. Socio-demographic factors are including age, education, affordability, influenced decisions and expectations. The findings highlight the need for targeted awareness programs to improve knowledge and encourage early adoption of dental prosthetic care in adult population.
