The aim of the present study was to evaluate the facial esthetic perception of dental students, non-dental students, and laypersons with respect to digitally altered profile photographs in the vertical and sagittal dimensions.
Colored profile photographs of a male subject and a female subject were digitally altered in the sagittal and vertical dimensions. Preclinical and clinical dental students, clinical medical students, senior art and engineering students, and laypersons with various occupations were invited to rate the profile photographs and their treatment need by means of a questionnaire created on Google Forms.
The study involved 574 participants (378 females, 196 males). Male and female straight normal profiles were found to be the most attractive facial profiles by all groups, followed by convex profiles. Concave profiles were rated as the least attractive and in need of more treatment. No significant difference was observed between the ratings of the preclinical and clinical dental students. The ratings of dental students showed significant differences in terms of esthetic perception compared with the engineering students and laypersons. Regarding the gender of the participants, there were significant differences between males and females.
The perception of facial esthetics was influenced by education, and students whose study curriculum was esthetic in nature or clinically based were more critical in their judgment. The gender of the participants significantly influenced their esthetic judgment.
本研究旨在评估牙科学生、非牙科学生和普通人群对数字化改变的垂直和矢状面侧貌照片的面部审美感知。
对一名男性和一名女性受试者的彩色侧貌照片进行了矢状面和垂直面的数字化改变。邀请了牙体牙髓病学前和临床阶段的牙科学生、临床医学学生、高年级艺术和工程专业学生以及各种职业的普通人群，通过在 Google 表单上创建的问卷来评价这些侧貌照片及其治疗需求。
该研究共涉及 574 名参与者（378 名女性，196 名男性）。所有组都认为男性和女性直面正常侧貌是最吸引人的面部侧貌，其次是凸面侧貌。凹面侧貌被评为最不吸引人的，需要更多的治疗。牙体牙髓病学前和临床阶段的牙科学生的评分没有显著差异。与工程专业学生和普通人群相比，牙科学生的审美感知评分存在显著差异。就参与者的性别而言，男性和女性之间存在显著差异。
面部审美感知受到教育的影响，学习课程具有美学性质或基于临床的学生在判断时更为严格。参与者的性别显著影响他们的审美判断。
