RESUMO

Although several studies have been published about toothless patients rehabilitated with Double Total Prosthesis, this subject has not yet been fully considered as to its physiological, social or emotional aspects. By means of Spectrography, the intensity of sound of the consonant "5" and of the vowels "A", "E", " I" , and "O" was analyzed in five Brazilian male individuals, ages ranging from 40 to 76, who had never made use of dental prosthesis before and who had sought the Total Prosthesis Clinic of the Odontology College at Pontificia Universidade Católica de Campinas to have double dentures made. Three spectrograms were made for each individual: one before the dentures were set, one after 30 days of their use, and another immediately after their removal. A statistic analysis of differences average, standard deviation and variation was applied to the data obtained. Significancy was tested through Teste t. From the studied sample we found that the values concernlng sound intensity in the three different conditions toothless, rehabilitated and after prosthesis removal - show statlstically significant alterations, directly interfering with the quality of speech.
