Impact of Treatment with Conventional Complete Dentures on (Oral) Health-Related Quality of Life: A Scoping Review
2019
PURPOSE: To synthesize the evidence on the impact of treatment with conventional complete dentures (CDs) on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Interventional studies were included if they evaluated the impact of CD treatment on HRQoL or OHRQoL with or without a control group. RESULTS: A total of 22 studies were included, 10 of which had comparison groups. The results suggest that CD treatment improves OHRQoL. CONCLUSION: CD treatment impacts HRQoL and OHRQoL, and the Oral Health Impact Profile-EDENT is the most used instrument to measure this impact.
