Table 3. Satisfaction and oral health-related quality of life: VAS overall oral health satisfaction (%), total OHIP (0-56), VAS satisfaction with speech (%) and OHIP-14 question 1 (‘Have you had trouble pronouncing any words because of problems with your teeth, mouth or denture?’) presented during the different phases of maxillary overdenture treatment (preoperative with conventional denture, connection of the overdenture and 3 years follow-up). After Bonferroni correction, the significance level was set at α=0.05/3.
