One of the main tasks of the contemporary society is the increasing of the quality of life for the patients` with the different chonic diseases.

The inflummatory parodentium disease, particularly the chronic generalized periodontitis (CGP), makes people suffering from the physical and psycological discomfort being the main reason of the early loss of teeth and of the decrease in the dentition functional capabilities. Also this disease leads to the development of the dental pathology, of the infection niduses and to the sensitization of the organism.

One of the most complete tools for the measuring dental pathology influence on the quality of life is the questionaire LQ (“The type of the influence of the dental health” OHIP-14 (G. Slade, J. Spencer, 1994).

The goal of this research work is the investigetion of the connection between the social factors and the clinical indexes (which characterise the chronic generalized periodontitis process) with the OHIP-14-RU indexes by the citizens of the Udmurt Republic.

Materials and Methods In this research paper the validation is made and the psychometric features of the quationnairea of the life`s quality (LQ) OHIP-14-RU is fixed. This quastionnaire is employed to the group of 182 people living it the Udmurt Republic at the age of 40,7±7,2 with the chronic generalized periodontitis (CGP) of the different degree of the disease (106 women and 76 men).

During the interview it`s enumerate the next patients` social characteristics: age, sex, income level, standart of education, labor activity, social position, marital status and harmful habits.

The patients` examination includes the defenition of the main clinical indexes of the chronic generalized periodontitis (CGP) process: the sanitary index size, the depth of the paradontal pockets, the extent of the gum recession, the tooth mobility, gingival hemorrhage degree, PMA index, the extent of the resorption of the bone stock according to the X-ray findings.

For the evaluation of the correlation rate between the examined settings and the LQ indexes it`s defined the correlation of Pirson`s coefficient.

Results and Conclusions The next statement is proved according to the statistical analysys: the questionnaire OHIP-14-RU is found as the quite reliable, valide and susceptible tool for evaluating of the dental operation factors of the patients` LQ with the CGP living in the Udmurt Republic. It reveals that the degree of the CGP disease makes the great influence on the dental indexes of the LQ OHIP-14-RU. Mostly it has impact on the changes of the physical and psycological aspects of human life. The analysis doesn`t reveal the essential correlation connection between the indexes of the LQ OHIP-14-RU and the social characteristics of the examined patients.

However, the correlation analysis between LQ OHIP-14-RU and the clinical indexes (which characterize the course of the CGP) reveal the possitive correlation coefficient mostly of the average force. The most important correlation relations are made in a descending sequence: with the tooth mobility degree (0,70), the sanitary index size(0,69), gingival hemorrhage degree(0,64) and PMA index(0,57). The higest correlation criterias of the listed clinical indexes with the scale of “the Physical discomfort” allow us to use the questions, making the scale OHIP-14-RU, as one of the evaluation criterias of the treatment qulity during the making of the questionnaire of the patients with the CGP side by side with the other methods of the expert’s evaluation.
