“…For example, the previous GOHAI item was adapted to ‘Have you had difficulty biting any foods because of problems with your teeth, mouth, jaw or dentures in the last month?’ Available language versions of the GOHAI [1,4,20,21] and the OIDP [22–24] were used to guide the adaptation process. Then, the three experts assigned the 22 items to the four OHIP-based dimensions of Oral Function , Orofacial Pain , Orofacial Appearance , and Psychosocial Impact .…”

Objectives To integrate items from two widely used oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) questionnaires, the General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) and the Oral Impacts on Daily Performances (OIDP), as well as culturally-specific items of the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) into a four-dimensional OHRQoL model consisting of Oral Function, Orofacial Pain, Orofacial Appearance, and Psychosocial Impact. Methods Subjects came from an ancillary study of the Dimensions of Oral Health-Related Quality of Life Project (N = 267 patients, mean age ± SD: 54.0 ± 17.2 years, 58% women.) Patients filled in the original 49 items of OHIP and 22 additional OHRQoL items in a cross-sectional study. These additional items consisted of 7 culturally specific OHIP items and 15 GOHAI or OIDP items with unique content not covered in OHIP-49. Before data collection, three experts hypothesized to which of the four OHRQoL dimensions these items belong. Hypotheses were tested in correlation analyses between the 22 items and the four dimension scores that were derived from OHIP-49. Results Five of the 22 items did not provide sufficient information to which dimension they belong. In 16 of the remaining 17 items, the pattern of correlation coefficients fitted experts’ a priori hypotheses. Acceptance of 16 of the 17 hypotheses was interpreted as evidence that additional (not in OHIP-49 contained) OHRQoL items can be assigned to Oral Function, Orofacial Pain, Orofacial Appearance, and Psychosocial Impact. Conclusion Items of three OHRQoL instruments can be integrated into a dimensional OHRQoL model consisting of Oral Function, Orofacial Pain, Orofacial Appearance, and Psychosocial Impact. Clinical significance Oral Function, Orofacial Pain, Orofacial Appearance, and Psychosocial Impact can serve as a simple and clinically appealing set of oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) dimensions and therefore provide an opportunity for simpler, but psychometrically improved OHRQoL measurement in the future.

“…They are also used in combination with other measures of QOL. A number of instruments have also been developed specifically to measure OHRQL, including the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) 31) , the General Oral Health Assessment Index 29) , and Subjective Oral Health Status Indicator 38) . There is also the Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ), which was developed by Cunningham et al 9) to evaluate QOL in patients with dentofacial deformity undergoing surgical orthodontic treatment 25) .…”

Surgical orthodontic treatment has been reported to improve oral health-related quality of life (OHRQL). Such treatment comprises three stages: pre-surgical orthodontic treatment; orthognathic surgery; and post-surgical orthodontic treatment. Most studies have focused on change in OHRQL between before and after surgery. However, it is also necessary to evaluate OHRQL at the pre-surgical orthodontic treatment stage, as it may be negatively affected by dental decompensation compared with at pre-treatment. The purpose of this prospective study was to investigate the influence of surgical orthodontic treatment on QOL by assessing change in condition-specific QOL at each stage of treatment in skeletal class III cases. Twenty skeletal class III patients requiring surgical orthodontic treatment were enrolled in the study. Each patient completed the Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ), which was developed for patients with dentofacial deformity. Its items are grouped into 4 domains: "social aspects of dentofacial deformity"; "facial esthetics"; "oral function"; and "awareness of dentofacial esthetics". The questionnaire was completed at the pre-treatment, pre-surgical orthodontic treatment, and post-surgical orthodontic treatment stages. The results revealed a significant worsening in scores between at pre-treatment and pre-surgical orthodontic treatment in the domains of facial esthetics and oral function (p<0.01), and between at pre-surgical orthodontic and post-surgical orthodontic treatment in all domains except awareness of dentofacial esthetics (p<0.05, p<0.01). A significant correlation was observed between a negative change in overjet and worsening OQLQ scores at the pre-surgical orthodontic treatment stage. Significant correlations were also observed between improvement in upper and lower lip difference, soft tissue pogonion protrusion, and ANB angle and improvement in OQLQ scores at the post-surgical orthodontic treatment stage. These results indicate that morphologic change influences OHRQL in patients undergoing surgical orthodontic treatment not only after surgery, but also during pre-surgical orthodontic treatment.

“…Many studies have been conducted using these scales, including translated versions, in a number of countries (6)(7)(8). Japanese versions of the OHIP and GOHAI have been developed (9)(10)(11) and used primarily in areas of occupational health and regional health care (12). However, a Japanese version of the OIDP has not been developed yet.…”

The Oral Impacts on Daily Performance(OIDP) is a well-known oral health-related QOL instrument used internationally. The aim of this study was to develop and test a Japanese version of the OIDP for use in interviews. Following an internationally established method, the OIDP scale was translated using standardized methodology that consisted of forward translation, pilot study and backward translation. A pilot study was carried out using the revised version with 47 local residents (range, 40-105 years). In the item analysis of this study, there were no missing values or ambiguous responses. Twenty-eight percent of the participants replied that they 'had discomfort caused by an oral health problem' in the 'eating' items. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.77, indicating the internal consistency reliability of the questionnaire. Denture wearers had significantly higher OIDP scores in covariance analysis with age and sex as adjustment factors (P < 0.05). Based on the results, the questionnaire was re-evaluated. A back translation was produced and approved by the original author. Further assessment and validation of this scale is needed in a study with larger sample size. (J. Oral Sci. 49, 259-264, 2007)
