Oral health ‐related quality of life among Syrian refugees in Jordan: a cross‐sectional study

ConclusionThe physical aspect of quality of life was more negatively impacted than the psychological aspect. Toothbrushing frequency and attending a dental clinic at least once in the last year were associated with more positive OHRQoL scores. Older refugees seemed to be more vulnerable to the impact of poor oral health on OHRQoL.
