INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of malocclusion and orthodontic treatment on adolescent self-esteem.
METHODS
A total of 4509 middle school students were clinically evaluated for dental crowding. Lip protrusion was also measured with a specially designed ruler. Rosenberg's self-esteem scale was used to determine each subject's level of self-esteem.
RESULTS
The results showed that sex played a role in the relationship between self-esteem and malocclusion. For the girls, crowding of the anterior teeth had significant effects on their self-esteem; however, there was no significant difference in the boys' self-esteem. After fixed orthodontic treatment, the girls had higher self-esteem than the untreated malocclusion group. Girls with an ideal profile and good tooth alignment also showed higher self-esteem than students with crowding or protrusion.
CONCLUSIONS
This clinical study proved that malocclusion and fixed orthodontic treatment can affect self-esteem in adolescent girls.
简介
本研究旨在评估错颌畸形及正畸治疗对青少年自尊的影响。
方法
对 4509 名中学生进行临床牙拥挤度评估，使用特制的尺子测量唇突度。采用罗森伯格自尊量表评估每位受试者的自尊水平。
结果
结果表明，性别在自尊与错颌畸形的关系中起作用。对于女孩，前牙拥挤对其自尊有显著影响；然而，男孩的自尊没有显著差异。经过固定正畸治疗后，女孩的自尊高于未经治疗的错颌畸形组。具有理想侧貌和良好牙列的女孩比拥挤或突出的学生自尊心更强。
结论
本临床研究证明，错颌畸形和固定正畸治疗会影响青春期女孩的自尊。
