## Detailed Description

Patients will be interviewed concerning their psychological conditions (HADS) and their oral health related quality of life (GOHAI) before tooth extraction and one month after complete tooth loss.

## Arms

- **Patients pending complete tooth loss** — Will be recruited patients pending tooth loss, ages between 18 and 65 years, whose dental conditions have previously been identified

## Primary Outcomes

- **Change in Hospital anxiety and depression (HAD) score** _(time frame: 1 month (change in score from baseline (before tooth extraction) to 1 month after tooth extraction))_ — The HADS is a 14-item self-assessment scale designed to evaluate emotional stress induced by chronic pain in non-psychiatric populations. HAD-A assessed anxiety and HAD-D evaluated depression. Scores of greater than 10 were indicative of anxiety or depression, scores of 7 or less were indicative of no significant anxiety and depression, and scores of 8 to 10 indicated borderline anxiety or depression.

## Secondary Outcomes

- **Change in General oral health assessment index (GOHAI)** _(time frame: 1 month (change in score from baseline (before tooth extraction) to 1 month after tooth extraction))_
- **Gender** _(time frame: at date of inclusion (up to 24h))_
- **Age** _(time frame: at date of inclusion (Up to 24h))_
- **Educational level** _(time frame: at date of inclusion (Up to 24h))_
