Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in patients with depression and ADHD compared to mentally healthy individuals, using the Oral Health Impact Profile G14 (OHIP G14).
- Results showed that psychiatric patients had significantly higher OHIP G14 scores (indicating poorer oral health quality) than the healthy control group, with no significant difference between those with depression and ADHD.
- The study found associations between poor oral health behaviors and higher OHIP scores, suggesting that patients with mental health issues may perceive their oral health differently; thus, better collaboration between psychiatric and dental professionals is recommended.
