ASSOCIATED FACTORS such as sex, age, site of living, retention, and stability of denture, satisfaction of denture esthetic, COMPLETE DENTURE maker, and COMPLETE DENTURE wearing period were studied.

There was significant relation among the prevalence of EPULIS FISSURATUM with sex, stability, retention of COMPLETE DENTURE and period of wearing COMPLETE DENTURE on 24 hours (P<0.05).
