BACKGROUND
Dental appearance may influence how others perceive individuals. This study would help to understand whether young people make judgments about other young people with dental fluorosis.
AIM
We aimed to evaluate the perception of children aged 12-15 years about other children with visible dental fluorosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A self-administered social attribute questionnaire was used to capture dental appearance-related judgments of 455 children aged 12-15 years, from 6 schools. All the children were given either a set of full-face photographs of a boy and a girl, without dental fluorosis or digitally modified anterior teeth to show visible dental fluorosis. The Total Attribute Score (TAS) was measured by totaling the participant's ratings for each characteristic, ranging from 11 (most negative score) and 44 (most positive).
RESULTS
A total of 437 children participated, 53.8% (235) were males with a mean age of 13.99 ± 0.825. The mean TAS for photographs with fluorosis (25.9 ± 4.73) was significantly lower than without fluorosis (34.8 ± 4.83) (p < 0.001). Concerning gender, age, and SES, photos with fluorosis had significantly lower mean TAS than without fluorosis (p < 0.001, <0.001, <0.001 and < 0.001), respectively.
CONCLUSION
Children in our study perceived that fluorosis could have a negative impact on their appearance.
背景
牙齿外观可能会影响他人对个体的看法。本研究将有助于了解年轻人是否会对患有氟斑牙的其他年轻人做出评判。
目的
我们旨在评估12至15岁儿童对其他患有明显氟斑牙儿童的看法。
材料与方法
使用一份自填式社会属性问卷，收集来自6所学校的455名12至15岁儿童对与牙齿外观相关的评判。所有儿童都被给予一组男孩和女孩的正面照片，照片中的人没有氟斑牙，或者是经过数字修改的前牙以显示明显的氟斑牙。总属性得分（TAS）通过将参与者对每个特征的评分相加得出，范围从11分（最负面得分）到44分（最正面得分）。
结果
共有437名儿童参与，53.8%（235名）为男性，平均年龄为13.99 ± 0.825岁。有氟斑牙照片的平均TAS（25.9 ± 4.73）显著低于无氟斑牙照片的平均TAS（34.8 ± 4.83）（p < 0.001）。在性别、年龄和社会经济地位方面，有氟斑牙的照片的平均TAS分别显著低于无氟斑牙的照片（p < 0.001、<0.001、<0.001和<0.001）。
结论
我们研究中的儿童认为氟斑牙可能会对他们的外表产生负面影响。
