Brief Summary

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of periodontitis on oral health-related quality of life (OHQoL) and the factors may associated with OHQoL. Methods: 50 untreated periodontitis patients and 50 individuals without periodontitis were enrolled in the study. All subjects underwent detailed periodontal examination and probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) measurements were performed. OHRQoL was assessed through the Oral Health Quality of Life-United Kingdom (OHRQoL-UK) scale. Symptoms of periodontitis was determined by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Socio-demographic characteristics, medical history, smoking status, hygiene habits of the all individuals were recorded.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • OHRQoL-UK scores of the study population

    OHRQoL was assessed using the Oral-Dental Health-Related Quality of Life-United Kingdom (OHRQoL-UK) scale.It consists of 4 different categories and 16 questions that evaluate the effects of OHRQoL in both positive and negative areas. These categories are listed as follows; symptoms (2 questions), physical status (5 questions), psychological status (5 questions), social status (4 questions) ' Questions on the OHRQoL-UK scale were scored using the Likert-type scale as 'very bad effect-score 1, bad effect-score 2, no effect-score 3, good effect-score 4, very good effect-score 5. The scores were gathered from all surveys and they were summarized to give the scores of 4 sub-categories separately, along with the total OHRQoL score. A higher total score indicates a higher OHRQoL.

Interventions

It consists of 4 different categories and 16 questions evaluating the effects of OHRQoL in positive and negative areas. These categories are as follows; symptoms (2 questions), physical status (5 questions), psychological status (5 questions), social status (4 questions) ' Questions on the OHRQoL-UK scale were scored using the Likert-type scale as 'very bad effect-score 1, bad effect-score 2, no effect-score 3, good effect-score 4, very good effect-score 5. The scores obtained from all questions were summed to give the scores of the 4 sub-categories separately and the total OHRQoL score. A higher total score indicates a higher OHRQoL.
