Patient’s subjective evaluation of dental appearance and aesthetics is becoming an increasingly important factor in aesthetic treatments and prosthetic therapy.
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of age, education level, gender, and different dental status and the appearance of the upper anterior teeth (color, size, shape, position and alignment of the anterior teeth) on the satisfaction of the respondents with dental appearance and aesthetics of their upper anterior teeth and their desire for improvement.
The study encompassed 480 people aged 20 to 50 years with an average age of 30.84 years. There were 236 male and 244 female subjects. The respondents were interviewed using a questionnaire specially designed for the purpose of this research. For the study, the subjects were divided into the following three age groups: the younger age group (20–30 years of age), the middle age group (31–40 years of age), and the older age group (41–50 years of age).
The conducted study did not reveal statistical significance with respect to gender in any of the examined parameters (p > 0.05). A little more than one half of the respondents in each age group were satisfied with their dental appearance and aesthetics (60.3% of the respondents in the age group of 20–30 years, 55.7% in the age group of 31–40, and 53.7% in the age group of 41–50 years of age). Satisfaction with dental appearance and aesthetics increases linearly with the increase in the level of education and was the highest among the respondents with university degree (33.3%).
Female respondents were more dissatisfied with their dental appearance and aesthetics as compared with male respondents, but the difference was found to be non-significant. Patients with higher education level were more satisfied with their dental appearance and aesthetics than those with lower education.
患者对牙齿外观和美观度的主观评价在美学治疗和修复治疗中日益成为一个重要因素。
本研究旨在调查年龄、教育水平、性别、不同牙齿状况以及上前牙外观（前牙颜色、大小、形状、位置和排列）对受访者对上颌前牙牙齿外观和美观度的满意度及其改善意愿的影响。
该研究涵盖了480名年龄在20至50岁之间的人，平均年龄为30.84岁。男性受试者236名，女性受试者244名。使用专门为本研究设计的问卷对受访者进行访谈。为进行研究，受试者被分为以下三个年龄组：较年轻年龄组（20 - 30岁）、中年年龄组（31 - 40岁）和较年长年龄组（41 - 50岁）。
在任何一个检查参数方面，所进行的研究均未显示出性别方面的统计学显著性（p > 0.05）。每个年龄组中略多于一半的受访者对其牙齿外观和美观度感到满意（20 - 30岁年龄组中60.3%的受访者、31 - 40岁年龄组中55.7%的受访者以及41 - 50岁年龄组中53.7%的受访者）。对牙齿外观和美观度的满意度随着教育水平的提高呈线性增加，在大学学历的受访者中满意度最高（33.3%）。
与男性受访者相比，女性受访者对其牙齿外观和美观度的不满程度更高，但发现差异不显著。教育水平较高的患者比教育水平较低的患者对其牙齿外观和美观度更满意。
