To assess the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) among children suffering from congestive heart failure and bronchial asthma in Lucknow city.
Methodology: Patients aged 6-12 years were assessed using Child Perception Questionnaire (CPQ). DMFT was assessed in same patients to measure their caries experience.
Dental caries were observed in 62.6% of cardiac patients followed by 55.8% in bronchial asthma patients.
Children with CHF had high dental caries experience as compared to asthmatic patients. Due to high caries exposure, they had a negative impact on OHRQoL as compared to others.
The relationship between oral and systemic health must be consistently reinforced to a patient and guardians of children with systemic disease that can enable to improve the quality of life of these compromised populations.

评估勒克瑙市患有充血性心力衰竭和支气管哮喘的儿童的口腔健康相关生活质量（OHRQoL）。
方法：使用儿童感知问卷（CPQ）对6至12岁的患者进行评估。对同一批患者评估龋失补指数（DMFT）以测量他们的龋齿经历。
62.6%的心脏病患者有龋齿，其次是55.8%的支气管哮喘患者。
与哮喘患者相比，患有充血性心力衰竭的儿童有更高的龋齿经历。由于龋齿发生率高，与其他儿童相比，他们的口腔健康相关生活质量受到负面影响。
必须向患有全身性疾病的儿童患者及其监护人持续强化口腔与全身健康之间的关系，这有助于改善这些弱势人群的生活质量。
