Introduction. Many factors affect the oral health of the population. These include individual factors, the effectiveness of dental care, life styles and political, economic and environmental factors. Aim. The aim of the study was to evaluate the type of financing dental care and frequency of dental visits among patients treated with implants because of missing teeth. Material and methods. The survey was conducted among 464 patients of both genders aged 20-74 years, treated with dental implants at the Non-Public Healthcare Centre “Dental” in Tomaszów Mazowiecki. The patients answered questions included in anonymous questionnaire. The questions concerned age, education, type of dental care financing and frequency of dental visits. Results. Results of the survey indicate that among patients treated with implants there were over 14-times more people benefiting from dental care in private clinics providing preventive and restorative treatments at full cost, compared with people using dental services funded by the National Health Fund. Just over 16% of the surveyed patients frequently enough, i.e. at least once in 6 months reported to the dentist. The frequency of dental visits increased with the education level - people with vocational and secondary education most often visited a dentist irregularly, when necessary, while those with higher education - once a year. Patients below 60 years reported to the dentist 1-2 times a year, whereas older - irregularly, when necessary. Conclusion. In preparing the patient for the treatment of missing teeth with implants one should be aware of his need for paying special attention to oral health and regular, sufficiently frequent follow-up visits which has a substantial impact on the course and therapeutic success in the implant prosthetic treatment

The number of patients who take the decision to have implantoprosthetic treatment keeps increasing. The aim of this study was to determine the sources of knowledge about possibilities of treating missing teeth with implants. The survey was conducted among 464 patients of both sexes aged from 20 to 74 years, treated with dental implants at the Non-Public Healthcare Centre “Dental” in Tomaszów Mazowiecki. The patients answered questions in an anonymous questionnaire. The questions included age, place of residence and source of knowledge about implants. Persons aged up to 40 years frequently obtained knowledge about the possibility of using implants from the media; patients aged 40-60 years - from their dentist, and people over 60 years of age - from family or friends. Persons living in rural areas or small town frequently acquired knowledge of the possibility of dental implants from the dentist, the city residents - from family or friends. The results of the survey indicate that the dentist is most commonly the main source of information about the possibility of replacing the missing teeth with implants, less family and friends and the media. The source of acquiring knowledge in this field varies depending on the age and place of residence of the persons concerned.

Social, economic and technological progress results in an increasing range of treatment and rehabilitation methods for patients with partial or complete edentulism. The role of the dentist is to inform the patient about the full range of available missing teeth treatment options leading to complete rehabilitation of the masticatory organ in agreement with the patient’s aesthetic and functional expectations. The aim of the paper was to identify the type of prostheses used by patients before opting for implantsupported teeth replacements, according to the patients’ age, sex, marital status, place of residence and education. The study covered 464 patients, women and men, aged 20-74, treated with dental implants. The patients answered questions in an anonymous questionnaire. The influence of the prosthetic replacement type according to age and marital status was highly statistically significant, whereas it was statistically significant according to sex, place of residence and education. The female respondents who previously used tissue-borne complete or partial dentures opted for implant treatment more frequently. The respondents younger than 40 and between 40-60 years of age who did not previously used any prosthetic replacements opted for implant treatment more frequently. The respondents who did not use any prosthetic replacements decided to undergo implant treatment most frequently, regardless of their marital status, education and place of residence. The patients opted for implant treatment to improve their quality of life, despite the high cost of such therapy.

Introduction. The treatment of short stature caused by somatotropin hypopituitarism is a long process with serious restrictions and requirements. Administration of growth hormone in the form of daily injections, drug storage and follow-up visits are burdensome and require the involvement of the whole family in the treatment process. Not only the improvement in the child’s growth but also many other factors may affect the satisfaction of parents with the treatment effect. Aim of the study. The aim of the study is to evaluate the influence of demographic factors and the duration of human growth hormone therapy on the satisfaction of parents with the treatment od children with somatotropin hypopituitarism. Materiał and methods. The study involved 69 parents of children with somatotropin hypopituitarism treated with growth hormone at the Department of Paediatrics, Endocrinology, Diabetology and Paediatric Neurology at the Children’s Hospital in Torun. The research used the own questionnaire and KIDSCREEN questionnaire for parents. Results and conclusions. The satisfaction with human growth hormone therapy depends on the child's growth results and is not affected by the long-term therapy. Parents' satisfaction with growth hormone treatment does not depend on the parents' education, place of residence or the child's sex. Research shows that satisfaction depends on the age of the child.

Wstęp. Leczenie niskorosłości spowodowanej somatropinową niedoczynnością przysadki jest procesem długotrwałym, obarczonym poważnymi obostrzeniami i wymaganiami. Podawanie  hormonu wzrostu w postaci codziennych iniekcji, przechowywanie leku i wizyty kontrolne są uciążliwe i wymagają zaangażowania całej rodziny w proces leczenia. Nie tylko poprawa wzrostu dziecka ale też wiele innych czynników może wpływać na satysfakcję rodziców z efektu leczenia. Cel pracy. Celem pracy jest ocen wpływu czynników demograficznych oraz długość trwania terapii rekombinowanym hormonem wzrostu na satysfakcję rodziców z leczenia dzieci z somatotropinową niedoczynnością przysadki Materiał i metody. W badaniu wzięło udział 69 rodziców dzieci z somatotropinową niedoczynnością przysadki leczonych hormonem wzrostu na oddziale Pediatrii, Endokrynologii, Diabetologii i Neurologii Dziecięcej w Szpitalu Dziecięcym w Toruniu. Do badań wykorzystano ankietę własną oraz standaryzowany kwestionariusz KIDSCREEN-52 wersja dla rodziców. Wyniki i wnioski. Satysfakcja z leczenia rekombinowanym hormonem wzrostu jest zależna od osiągniętych rezultatów wzrostowych dziecka i nie wpływa na nią długotrwałość terapii. Satysfakcja rodziców z leczenia hormonem wzrostu nie zależy od wykształcenia rodziców, miejsca zamieszkania a także płci dziecka. Z badań wynika że satysfakcja zależy od wieku dziecka.
