Abstract
We need more qualitative research in oral and craniofacial sciences.
Highlights
When oral rehabilitation clinical cases are exposed in congresses or seminars, the quality of the photographs is artistic, even more so when the conference is in a fancy hotel
In dentistry we have imported this phenomenon and we have “quality of life related to oral health”, “a multidimensional construct that reflects people’s comfort when eating, sleeping, and engaging in social interaction; their self-esteem; and their satisfaction with respect to their oral health”
We find a large number of instruments available, from those evaluating the quality of life related to oral health in general, relative to implants, in children, in Cartes-Velásquez R
Summary
When oral rehabilitation clinical cases are exposed in congresses or seminars, the quality of the photographs is artistic, even more so when the conference is in a fancy hotel. What we can see is that dentists (and probably the rest of the health professionals) evaluate the results of the treatment from their own perspective, as if it were their own mouth and face. Things are slowly changing, they are becoming not so patient, they are more demanding and less submissive than 20 years ago.
