Validation of the psychosocial impact of dental aesthetics questionnaire (Pidaq) in Spanish adolescents

ObjectiveTo evaluate the psychosocial impact of malocclusion, determine its relationship with the severity of malocclusion, and assess the influence of gender and social class on this relationship in adolescents.MethodsA random sample of 627 Spanish adolescents aged 12 - 15 years underwent intraoral examinations by 3 calibrated examiners (intraexaminer and interexaminer kappa > 0.85) at their schools. Psychosocial impact was measured through a self-rated Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics Questionnaire (PIDAQ). The severity of malocclusion was measured by the Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN). Gender and social class were also recorded.ResultsThe total PIDAQ score and those of its 4 subscales, social impact, psychological impact, aesthetic concern, and dental self-confidence, presented significant differences (p ≤ 0.05 by analysis of variance) and linear relationships with the IOTN grades (p ≤ 0.05 by linear regression). Stepwise linear regression models showed that the IOTN dental health component was a predictive variable of the total and subscale PIDAQ scores. Neither gender nor social class was an independent predictive variable of this relationship, except the linear model for psychological impact, where gender was a predictive variable. The occlusal conditions responsible for higher PIDAQ scores were increased overjet, impeded eruption, tooth displacement, and increased overbite.ConclusionsMalocclusion has a psychological impact in adolescents and this impact increases with the severity of malocclusion. Social class may not influence this association, but the psychological impact seems to be greater among girls.

Principle investigator reviewed the patients using structured questionnaire. Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics Questionnaire' (PIDAQ) were analyzed to assess the dental aesthetics by using the Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI)." Inclusion criteria were patient's aged 25 years and having no previous history of orthodontic treatment. Those patients already on treatment, presence of craniofacial syndromes or anomalies and "Patients with any mental or behavioral disorders that might have reduced their ability for self-determination were excluded. Malocclusion orthodontic treatment recommendations to the priorities assigned to four classes per grade. The first factor is the Dental Self-Confidence that consists of 6 items from the Self-Confidence Scale. Results: A total of 108 patients, both males and females were included in the study. 69(63.88%) out of 108 subjects were males and rest were females 39(36.11%) cases, male to female ratio 1:1.7. The minimum age was 25 years and maximum was 55years but most of the patients were in the range of 25 to 35 years means age was 27+4.7 years. In this study DAI scores were observed, grade-I in 53(49.07%), grade-II in 32(29.62 %), grade-III in 14(12.96 %) and grade-IV in 9(8.33 %).
