description AIM: To assess the dental caries status and oral health–related quality of life (OHRQOL) among children with orofacial cleft reporting to a hospital in India. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Subjects were divided into two groups. Group 1 cleft children (n = 80) and group 2 noncleft children (n = 80). Decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) Index, deft Index, and Children Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire were recorded. RESULTS: The mean DMFT was high in noncleft (3.51 ± 2.45) children than in cleft children (2.75 ± 2.68). The mean deft was high in noncleft (1.11 ± 0.96) children than in cleft children (0.86 ± 3.07). CONCLUSION: Cleft children have negative impact on OHRQOL than noncleft children.
