Resumo: The objective of this study was to evaluate the perception of the quality of life of institutionalized elderly individuals (MB group) and noninstitutionalized elderly individuals (CLIN group) and to compare those results with the results of dental indices. Elderly women and men aged 60 years or older were evaluated. Anthropometric and cardiac measurements were performed. A questionnaire related to geriatric oral health (GOHAI) and the SF-36, which addresses quality of life, were administered. The Mann-Whitney t test was used to perform the statistical analyses ( < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the domains of the GOHAI. Despite the intense care offered by the institution, self-perceived quality of life, in the physical aspect, was more pronounced in noninstitutionalized participants.
Conclusions:
 The participants had similar general oral health conditions.
 The institutionalized participants had a higher salivary flow.
 Noninstitutionalized participants had higher salivary cortisol levels.
 Halitosis was similar.
 The participants in both groups predominantly used total maxillary prostheses, but those in the noninstitutionalized group used more partial mandibular prostheses.
 There were no differences in self-perceived health among the participants.
 The noninstitutionalized participants had better physical health; however, mental health was similar between the two groups.
