Core Tip	The quality of life (QoL) assessment has become an essential tool in clinical practice to better understand patient reported outcomes in recent years. It definitely helps to better understand the impact of oral health on the lives of patients with oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) and their families and to monitor the outcomes of treatments. It is a foremost pre-requisite to employ the best available QoL instrument when treating OPMDs. In view of the scarcity of research on QoL assessments in OPMDs, the development and application of condition-specific QoL instruments can allow them to become tools to better understand and shape the state of clinical practice, dental research and dental education.
