Serious oral health problems can lead to a decrease in the quality of life as well as work and study activities of an individual. This study was aimed to analyze the relationship between dental treatment motivation and Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in students of the Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University. This was a descriptive and analytical study with a cross sectional design. Samples were choosen by using the cluster random sampling method. Data were analyzed by using the Spearman’s rank correlation test. The results showed that the students had high motivation for dental treatment. Moreover, the students had good OHRQoL conditions, with the worse score on the dimensions of psychological discomfort, physical disability, social disability, and physical pain. The Spearman’s rank correlation test obtained an r-value of 0.190 and a p-value of 0.020 for the relationship between dental treatment motivation and OHRQoL. In conclusion, there was a significant relationship between dental care motivation and OHRQoL in students of the Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University.
