Abstract
Objective: To analyze the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) among school children and young adults before and 6 months after orthodontic treatment.
Material and methods: The study included 83 school children from 7 to 17 years old, and 190 young adults from 18 to 44 years old. The OHIP-14 questionnaire was used to assess OHRQoL.
Results: Among the school children enrolled in the study, children of primary and secondary school age 7-15 years (88.0%) prevailed, and among adults - people aged 18-29 years (70.5%). More than two thirds of the patients, both among school children and adults, were female. The self-assessment of OHRQoL given by adults was significantly worse than the assessment given by school children. Before orthodontic treatment, children and adults suffered the most from the components of OHRQoL associated with social and psychological distress: «psychological discomfort», «psychological disability» and «social disability». Adult patients also reported «physical pain». There was a significant improvement in OHRQoL, both among children and adults, 6 months after completion of orthodontic treatment.
Conclusion: The data obtained in the study can be used in the organization, planning and evaluation of the results of orthodontic treatment.
