Masood M, et al. - Using national representative data from the 2009 Adult Dental Health Survey, United Kingdom, researchers examined the impact of periodontal disease on the domains of oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of United Kingdom adults. In this study, a total of 6378 participants were analyzed. Higher Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) scores were significantly linked to periodontal pocketing. This investigation demonstrated that periodontal disease was significantly related to OHRQoL domains in a nationally representative sample of the UK population.
