The mean number of missing teeth was 5, and the mean total OHIP score was 21.57 (SD 12.55). The most frequently impacted dimensions for the OHIP-14 were "Physical pain" (77 %) and "Psychological discomfort" (82.5 %). 96.8 % of the investigated population experiencing some form of impact on their OHRQoL. Conclusion: A large majority of the patients visiting different Dental Colleges experienced an impact on their OHRQoL due to the missing teeth.
