The pain in the palate and throat while opening and closure of the mouth, pain in the basic teeth, pain in the various site of the mouth was significantly more ( P=0.033, P=0.01, p=0.005, P=0.005 respectively). The mobility and the lack of adequate fixation was also higher (P<0.001). The difficulty in eating and speaking was significantly higher (P=0.033, P=0.046 respectively).
