Removable denture is a risk indicator for peri-implantitis and facilitates expansion of specific periodontopathogens: a cross-sectional study

Table 2 Relationship between average diagnosis and type of prosthesis

	FD	RD
Average diagnosis	0.757	0.982
Variance	0.438	0.519
Observations	765	332
Pooled variance	0.463
Hypothetical difference	0
Degrees of freedom	1095
t-statistics	− 5.034
P(T < = t) one-way	< 0.001
Critical t-value one-way t-test	1.646
P(T < = t) two-way	< 0.001
critical t-value two-way t-Test	1.962

The two-sample t test, assuming equal variances showed a significant change in the dependent variable, peri-implant health, by the type of prosthesis (p = < 0.001)
