Oral Health-related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

Conditions
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Periodontitis
Tooth Loss
Dental Caries
Registration Number
NCT05096897
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Lille
Brief Summary

IBD patients have a higher risk of oral diseases that affect the oral mucosa, the teeth and the tooth supporting tissues. These conditions are often associated with pain, bleeding and impaired masticatory function which may have an impact on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). However, few studies have investigated the self-evaluation of oral quality of life in IBD patients. The rare existing studies focus on very specific patients (elderly patients, patients with stomas) and do not use validated tools for the evaluation of OHRQoL. We also lack data on the effect of treatments such as immunosuppressants and type of IBD on OHRQoL. The aim of this study is to (i) compare oral quality of life in a cohort of IBD patients versus non-IBD patients and (ii) explore potential factors that influence oral quality of life in IBD
