One way that can be done to reduce the impact of tooth loss is to use dentures. When entering old age, the level of appetite will decrease. To reduce morbidity in the elderly, it is necessary to pay more attention to their nutritional status. This study aims to determine the relationship between the use of dentures and the nutritional status of the elderly at RSGM UNPAD. The type of research used in this research is quantitative analytic.
