Impact of tooth loss related to number and position on oral health quality of life among adults
TLDR
The analyses showed OHRQoL gradients consistent with the number and position of teeth missing due to oral disease, suggesting that the quantity of teeth lost does not necessarily reflect the impact of tooth mortality on OHRZoL and that future studies should take this into consideration.Citations

TL;DR: Overall, periodontitis is highly prevalent in this subpopulation, with two-thirds of dentate older adults affected at any geographic level, and how the overall health-care management of older adults should consider the improvement of their oral health conditions is determined.

Retention of Teeth and Oral Health–Related Quality of Life:
TL;DR: Evidence is found that retention of teeth is associated with better OHRQoL, and two randomized clinical trials on SDAs indicated that people with SDAs do not show worse OHRZoL than do those with removable dentures.

Oral health literacy and oral health outcomes in an adult population in Brazil.
TL;DR: Adjusting for age, sex and SES, OHL is related to a risk factor (biofilm) and a consequence of poor oral health (emergency dental visits) and can interfere with the impact of oral diseases on quality of life.
