Oral health\u2010related quality of life (OHRQoL) was assessed with the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP). The sample included 223 patients enrolled at a university clinic which specialises in oral prosthetic rehabilitation and temporomandibular disorders. Of them, 78.9% were at or above the age of 50.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> No gender or age dependencies were observed. A comparison of answers regarding OHRQoL and DA revealed a significant interdependence (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030.0118); highly anxious patients were 3.55 times more likely to suffer from poor quality of life compared with less anxious ones.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:\u2002<\/jats:bold> This cross\u2010sectional study of mostly elderly patients seeking dental treatment in Switzerland found that increased DA was associated with an impaired OHRQoL. The average DA was slightly higher than the results of other industrialised countries and the average OHRQoL was reduced.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1741-2358.2011.00465.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,20]],"date-time":"2012-03-20T05:20:40Z","timestamp":1332220840000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["A
