Objectives: This research aimed to compare the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) between fully dentate subjects and edentulous patients wearing implant-supported fixed partial dentures (i-FPDs). The clinical conditions of both types of restorations were evaluated.

Methods: Participants were assigned to: Group-1 (SR, n = 50): screw-retained i-FPD wearers; Group-2 (CR, n = 50): cement-retained i-FPD wearers; and Group-3 (ND, n = 50): dentate subjects with a healthy natural dentition (controls).
