“…Supporting a patient's well‐being goes beyond simply treating oral diseases, and therefore, patient‐oriented perspectives such as OHRQoL are important in order to improve the understanding of the relationship between oral health, general health and quality of life . To promote person‐centred care, a greater emphasis is needed on the assessment of OHRQoL …”

Objectives It is well known that oral health status is associated with oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL) in the general population. The aim of this study was to describe and analyse OHRQoL among older people in short‐term care and its associated factors. Materials and Methods This cross‐sectional study included 391 older people in 36 short‐term care units. Data were collected via clinical oral assessments, questions about self‐perceived oral and general health, Katz Index of Activities of Daily Living (Katz‐ADL) and the Revised Oral Assessment Guide (ROAG). OHRQoL was measured using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP‐14). Multivariate logistic regression models were applied in the analysis. Results Poor OHRQoL was reported by 34% of the older people. Associated factors were swallowing problems according to ROAG; quite poor/poor self‐perceived physical, psychological and oral health; and being a woman. Conclusions There is an association between OHRQoL and older people's self‐perceived health according to the OHIP‐14. This indicates the importance of early detection of oral health problems in frail older people and to assess both oral health and swallowing problems among older people in short‐term care.

“…OHRQoL measures (e.g., a self-administered questionnaire) should be required for them to comprehensively evaluate their patients. There is evidence that quality of life education should be incorporated into the medical and dental curriculum [ 31 , 32 ]. Consequently, the training of OHRQoL measures should be encouraged in orthodontic curricula to enhance the patient-centered care concept for their students and graduates, with the expectation that they would routinely implement this knowledge in their future practice.…”

Patients with a fixed orthodontic appliance may have difficulties in maintaining good oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), and evaluating self-perceived OHRQoL in orthodontic patients could be challenging for their orthodontists. Therefore, this research was conducted to investigate whether orthodontic postgraduates would accurately evaluate the OHRQoL of their patients. Two self-administered questionnaires were designed for patients to rate their OHRQoL and for their orthodontic postgraduates to evaluate them on OHRQoL. All pairs of patients and their orthodontic postgraduates were requested to independently complete the questionnaires. Pearson’s correlation and multiple linear regression were performed to determine the relationships of the variables and to identify significant predictors on OHRQoL, respectively. There were 132 pairs of orthodontic patients and their residents who completed the questionnaires. There were no significant correlations between OHRQoL perceived by patients and evaluated by their orthodontic postgraduates in all aspects of treatment needs and dietary difficulties (p > 0.05). In addition, the regression model demonstrated no significant predictors for the self-perceived treatment needs and dietary difficulties of orthodontic patients. There seemed to be challenges for orthodontic postgraduates to evaluate their patients’ oral health-related quality of life. Therefore, the OHRQoL measures should be increasingly implemented in orthodontic education and practice in order to enhance the concept of patient-centered care.

“…46,47 The theoretical frameworks for dental hygiene are found in Table 2. [48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60] The ADHA supports the need for further development of the theoretical basis for the growth of the profession and ultimately, to become a unique discipline. 6,46 As conceptual models continue to evolve, practitioners can select an approach to client care that is both scientifically grounded and aligned with their personal philosophies.…”

A review of the oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQL) model for dental hygiene: Eighteen years later

Abstract: Eighteen years of the literature confirms that the OHRQL is being used minimally in education, research, and practice. Greater emphasis is needed around the collection and assessment of oral health-related quality of life measures for providing patient-centred care.
