Abstract

Background: The aim of the study was to compare the oral-health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) between cancer survivors: with rapid orthodontic treatment (TX) (up to 12 months) and standard TX (orthodontic treatment time longer than 16 months). Methods: There were 76 cancer survivors (48 women and 28 men) allocated into groups with rapid (36 people) or standard (40 people) duration of TX. OHRQoL was assessed on the basis of Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) values, measured before TX, 2 weeks and 3 months after the onset of TX, and after the end of TX. A repeated ANOVA test was used to check the statistical significance between the scores. Results: There were no significant differences regarding the OHIP-14 values between the examined groups at all stages of the examination. Both groups presented significant ( p < 0.001) improvement of the values of OHRQoL at the end of TX comparing to the values achieved before the onset of TX. Conclusions: Duration of orthodontic treatment by itself had no impact on oral-health-related quality of life.
