Impact of periodontal status on oral health-related quality of life in patients with and without type 2 diabetes

WHO-5 well-being index as screening instrument for psychological comorbidity in patients with temporomandibular disorder

“…The Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) is an established questionnaire to assess OHRQoL. It has been used in various studies on different dental populations [12][13][14]. The OHIP does not primarily assess daily burden or psychological distress, as only 11 items are focused on the psychological situation.…”

Oral Health - Related Quality of Life of Periodontal Patients in a Syrian Sample - A Pilot Study

“…More recently, Irani et al (2015) [17] investigated the impact of periodontal status on oral health-related quality of life in patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). They found that T2DM does not impact on overall oral health-related quality of life as measured by the oral health impact profile (OHIP)-49, and that chronic periodontitis and gingivitis were associated with poorer oral health-related quality of life in non-diabetic patients, with evidence of improvements following periodontal treatment, but no such effects were observed in patients with diabetes.…”

Impact of Chronic Periodontitis on the Quality of Life of Individuals with and without Diabetes

“…The prevalence of periodontitis ranges from 20 to 50% in the general population, but is 60% in the population with diabetes [28]. Epidemiological studies and meta-analyses of studies involving diabetic populations have demonstrated that diabetes increases the risk of developing periodontitis approximately threefold compared to individuals without diabetes [29,30].…”

“…Health and patient-centered outcomes are likely more relevant to individuals than traditional clinical measures of a disease [30]. Thus, the aim of the present study was to determine the occurrence of chronic periodontitis among individuals with and without diabetes and measure the impact on quality of life in the population studied.…”
