Reliability and validity of the quality of life with implant prostheses in China: A tool for assessing quality of life among implant-prostheses wearers
Objectives
The demand for dental implants is increasing in China; however, there is currently no validated assessment tool tailored to the oral health-related quality of life among this population. This study aimed to translate the Quality of Life with Implant Prostheses scale (QoLIP-10) into Chinese and evaluate its psychometric properties, including validity and reliability.
Methods
The QoLIP-10 was translated into Chinese using the Brislin translation model. A total of 202 implant-prosthesis wearers were recruited between August 2022 and July 2023 in China. Psychometric evaluation included exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), criterion validity, content validity, internal consistency (Cronbach’s α), split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability.
Results
The Chinese version of QoLIP-10 was successfully adapted to align with China’s cultural context. EFA extracted two factors, explaining 68.04 % of the cumulative variance. CFA demonstrated good model fit (χ²/df = 1.600, RMSEA = 0.077, CFI = 0.981, IFI = 0.982, TLI = 0.972). Criterion validity yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.386. Content validity indices were strong, with item-level (I-CVI) and scale-level (S-CVI) values ranging from 0.80 to 1.00 and 0.96, respectively. Internal consistency was excellent (total Cronbach’s α = 0.871; subscales: 0.896 and 0.910). Split-half reliability was 0.716, and test-retest reliability (2-week interval) was 0.875.
Conclusion
The Chinese QoLIP-10 shows promising psychometric properties and potential cultural adaptability in this initial cross-sectional validation, providing a validated tool for assessing quality of life in Chinese implant-prosthesis wearers. Its two-factor structure effectively captures both functional and psychosocial impacts of treatment.
Clinical Significance
This culturally adapted instrument enables efficient clinical assessment of patient-reported outcomes, addressing a critical gap in China's growing implant dentistry practice. Its brevity (10 items) and reliability make it particularly suitable for routine monitoring in busy clinical settings.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Dentistry has an open access mirror journal The Journal of Dentistry: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The Journal of Dentistry is the leading international dental journal within the field of Restorative Dentistry. Placing an emphasis on publishing novel and high-quality research papers, the Journal aims to influence the practice of dentistry at clinician, research, industry and policy-maker level on an international basis.
Topics covered include the management of dental disease, periodontology, endodontology, operative dentistry, fixed and removable prosthodontics, dental biomaterials science, long-term clinical trials including epidemiology and oral health, technology transfer of new scientific instrumentation or procedures, as well as clinically relevant oral biology and translational research.
The Journal of Dentistry will publish original scientific research papers including short communications. It is also interested in publishing review articles and leaders in themed areas which will be linked to new scientific research. Conference proceedings are also welcome and expressions of interest should be communicated to the Editor.
