Abstract
A study into perceptions of complete dentures was carried out in two d ental schools, one in Australia and the other in England. Two-hundred participants were asked to assess photographs of five sets of dentures for age, gender and personality. Results were subjected to a multi-ra ter kappa statistic. Although no centre was determined to be better th an the other, it was highly significant that Australian teachers were confident enough to state that they were unable to determine age or ge nder from the information supplied.
