ObjectiveTo evaluate the association between psoriasis (PSO), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and periodontitis (PE), and the Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) impacts on individuals with psoriatic disease's daily activities compared to the non-psoriatic ones.Materials & methods296 individuals with psoriatic disease (PSO n = 210, APS n = 86) (cases) and 359 without these diseases (controls) were included. Complete periodontal examinations and collection of variables of interest were performed. The Brazilian version of the Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP) instrument was applied.ResultsThe prevalence of PE was higher in PsA (57.0%; OR = 2.67 95%CI 1.65-4.32; p6 mm; clinical attachment level >6 mm; higher plaque index, % sites and teeth with bleeding on probing (pConclusionNegative impacts of PE on the OHRQoL were demonstrated. The ones having PSO and especially PsA and PE presented significantly worse indicators.
