Özet

BackgroundIn patients with periodontal disease, various symptoms are observed along with inflammation. The impact of local and systemic inflammation on periodontal tissue is well-known; however, the impact of periodontal disease on the individual's quality of life is unclear. This study aimed to assess oral health-related and general health-related quality of life in patients undergoing maintenance treatment following treatment for periodontitis (RP-CPH), patients with gingivitis (G) and patients with Stage I periodontitis (SI-P) and to compare this with individuals with clinical periodontal health (IP-CPH).MethodThis study was comprised of cross-sectional periodontal assessment along with questionnaires. Oral health-related quality of life and general health-related quality of life were assessed using, respectively, the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) and Short-Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaires. Study participants were classified according to the classification of periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions established by the 2017 World Workshop.ResultsThe OHIP-14 total scores for the 166 study participants (age range: 22-57) of the G (11.61 & PLUSMN; 3.21) and SI-P (13.03 & PLUSMN; 3.47) groups were significantly higher than the OHIP-14 total scores of the IP-CPH (1.09 & PLUSMN; 1.58) and RP-CPH (2.95 & PLUSMN; 2.58) groups. SF-36 scores were found to be significantly lower in the SI-P group in all subgroups compared to the G and IP-CPH groups.ConclusionsA correlation was found between early-stage periodontal disease and low levels of OHRQoL and GHRQoL. The health of periodontal tissues may have a positive effect on the quality of life.
