Abstract

Background: This study analyzed, in patients with periodontitis, the impact of the degree of self-perceived malocclusion, the experienced negative psychosocial impact of periodontitis, and the history and timing of orthodontic treatment. Methods: For the study were enrolled 54 patients undergoing a routine dental health visit. They answered the Negative Impact of Dental Aesthetics Scale (NIDAS), the Perception of Occlusion Scale (POS). Moreover, undergoes to the Approximal Plaque Index (API), the Gingival Bleeding Index (GBI), and the number of decayed teeth (DT) and missing teeth (MT). All data were analyzed using different statistical procedures. Results: The subjects ranging within the upper POS quartile scored higher on the GBI (contrast: P= 0.037) and DT (P= 0.028) than did those in the lower POS quartiles. Different to the patients who had minor negative impacts in the NIDAS, those with strong impacts had higher scores on the API (P<005). Compared to patients without previous orthodontic treatment, those with a history of orthodontic treatment lasting 24 months had a lower API (P <0.05), GBI and DT (each P = 0.008) scores. Conclusion: The present results suggest that self-perceived dental irregularity and the negative impact of periodontitis might affect oral health, whereas previous extensive orthodontic treatment may have favourable effects by improving dental health compliance.

牙周炎患者对咬合和正畸治疗的心理影响和患者感知

背景：本研究分析了牙周炎患者自我感知的错牙合程度、牙周炎带来的负面心理社会影响以及正畸治疗的历史和时间的影响。方法：本研究纳入了54名接受常规牙科健康检查的患者。他们回答了牙科美学量表（NIDAS）、咬合感知量表（POS）的负面影响。此外，进行近似牙菌斑指数（API）、牙龈出血指数（GBI）以及蛀牙数量（DT）和缺牙数量（MT）。使用不同的统计程序对所有数据进行分析。结果：POS上四分位数的受试者在GBI（对比度：P=0.037）和DT（P=0.028）上的得分高于POS下四分位数。与NIDAS中负面影响较小的患者不同，负面影响较大的患者API评分较高（P＜005）。与未接受过正畸治疗的患者相比，有24个月正畸治疗史的患者API、GBI和DT评分较低（P均<0.008）。结论：目前的结果表明，自我感知的牙齿不规则和牙周炎的负面影响可能会影响口腔健康，而先前的广泛正畸治疗可能通过提高牙齿健康依从性而产生有利效果。
