Abstract

Age and smoking cigarettes were found to contribute significantly to the lifetime of partial denture. Such an effect was determined by the use of the binary logistic regression model. When smoking cigarettes is compared to age, age of the patient was found to contribute slightly higher (probably ignorable difference) to this matter.
