The instruments used in this study were Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale, the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP), and a visual analogue scale of self-perceived facial aesthetics were applied, and socioeconomic and contextual data were collected from all patients. The statistical analysis included Poisson regression with robust variance (RR rate ratio) and it was performed to evaluate the association between predictors and the outcome oral health related-quality of life.Results:
Worse OHRQoL was reported by female patients (RR 1.21; 95%CI 1.09-1.35) and older individuals (RR 1.25; 95%CI1.13- 1.39).Conclusion:
