This study aims to evaluate periodontal health status and its impact on oral health-related quality of life by combining clinical periodontal parameters with validated patient-reported outcome measures. Periodontal assessments included probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), gingival index (GI), plaque index (PI), and bleeding on probing (BOP). Participants were further classified according to periodontal disease staging and grading. To assess the subjective impact of periodontal conditions on daily life, the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) and its shortened version, the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 short form (OShip-14), were administered.
