This original research article presents a systematic review and meta-analysis investigating the correlation between oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and general health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in adults. The authors synthesized findings from ten studies encompassing over 6,000 participants across diverse settings. Their analysis revealed a medium-sized correlation between these two aspects of health, suggesting a notable relationship where one influences the other. The study concludes that this connection has practical implications for integrating medical and dental care to improve overall patient well-being.
