In dental clinical practice, self-perception of orofacial appearance is highly correlated with treatment satisfaction. Therefore, it is important to explore factors correlated with self-perception of orofacial appearance. Perfectionism may be one such factor. This study investigated the role of perfectionism in self-perception of orofacial appearance.
Participants completed an online questionnaire that included demographic data, a measure of perfectionism, a measure of self-perception of orofacial appearance (including body image, smile appearance concern, and self-esteem), and a measure of anxiety and depression.
High perfectionism scores significantly predicted greater age, body image, smile appearance concern, and mental health scores and lower self-esteem scores ( < 0.005). After adjusting for possible confounding variables, smile appearance concern largely disappeared. Mental health acted as a mediator in the relationships between perfectionism and three orofacial appearance characteristics.
High perfectionism predicted higher self-perception of body image, and lower mental health and self-esteem in college students. Mental health could mediate the relationships between perfectionism and self-perception of orofacial appearance.
在牙科临床实践中，对口腔颌面部外观的自我感知与治疗满意度高度相关。因此，探索与自我感知口腔颌面部外观相关的因素非常重要。完美主义可能就是其中之一。本研究探讨了完美主义在自我感知口腔颌面部外观中的作用。
参与者完成了一份在线问卷，其中包括人口统计学数据、完美主义量表、口腔颌面部外观自我感知量表（包括身体形象、微笑外观关注和自尊）以及焦虑和抑郁量表。
高完美主义得分显著预测年龄更大、身体形象、微笑外观关注和心理健康得分更高以及自尊得分更低（ < 0.005）。调整可能的混杂变量后，微笑外观关注基本消失。心理健康在完美主义与口腔颌面部外观特征之间的关系中起中介作用。
高完美主义预测大学生对身体形象的自我感知更高，心理健康和自尊更低。心理健康可以调节完美主义与自我感知口腔颌面部外观之间的关系。
