54 Chapter 3 Conclusions Based on the findings of this study, the following conclusions were drawn: 1. The translation, cultural adaptation, and validation of the LORQv3 in Dutch has resulted in an instrument that can be used in Dutch-speaking populations. 2. LORQv3-NL not only measures OHRQoL but also focuses on different aspects of denture functionality. The Dutch version has proven, like the original version, to be reliable and valid with respect to internal consistency, construct validity, and test-retest reproducibility. 3. The LORQv3-NL will provide a new tool for studying denture complaints and denture incompatibility.
