Patient-Centered Outcomes in Implantology: Satisfaction, Functionality, and Quality of Life Measures
This study aimed to investigate the patient-centered outcomes of implant dentistry, focusing on satisfaction, functionality, and quality of life measures. A total of 150 patients who received dental implants were included in the study. Patient satisfaction was assessed using a validated questionnaire covering various aspects such as esthetics, function, and comfort.
Quality of life was evaluated using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14). The results revealed high levels of patient satisfaction with implant treatment, particularly regarding esthetics, function, and comfort. The OHIP-14 scores demonstrated significant improvements in oral health-related quality of life after implant placement.
These findings highlight the positive impact of implant dentistry on patient satisfaction and overall well-being. Further research is needed to explore the long-term effects of implant treatment on quality of life and to identify factors that may influence patient outcomes.
