Palatal and mandibular tori in a Romanian removable denture-wearing population.

Objective: To establish the prevalence of palatal tori (TP) and mandibular tori (TM) in a Romanian denture-wearing population in order to see how or if tori influenced the denture design or the treatment planning.

Background Data:   There are no available data regarding tori in an elderly Romanian population and its implication for treatment planning. It could be considered a local factor influencing the quality of prosthetic treatment.
