Background: Oral Health Impact profile is one of the most common methods to assess the Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) of the patients.
Methods: In this study, a total of 66 edentulous participants were included and divided into 3 groups of 22 each using simple random sampling. OHIP-14 scores were assessed before complete denture treatment and at 6 months follow-up.
Results: When comparison of mean OHIP – 14 among the study population across gender before and after denture insertion was done the results were statistically significant. (P-value- 0.001) The difference between the follow-up scores and the scores before a denture when subjected to statistical analysis was significant for all three groups. When one-way ANOVA was done between the groups the data was statistically significant. (P-value <0.001).
Conclusion: The study conclusively showed that the OHRQoL of the patient improved significantly with complete denture prosthesis at 6 months follow-up. The difference between the three groups was also statistically significant and patients with any of the three aforementioned occlusal schemes showed improvement in their OHRQoL. The patient's scores improved the most with conventional group function occlusion, followed by monoplane and the lowest improvement Was in the bilateral balanced group.
