Sažetak
AIM: To quantify the relationship between craniodentofacial characteristics, orthognathic quality of life and personality traits. SUBJECTS AND METHOD: The validation of the Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ) was performed on a convenient sample of 375 examinees (35% male) aged 8-41 years (median 22, interquartile range 20-24). The cross-sectional study included 149 university students and patients (39% male) aged 11-39 years (median 21, interquartile range 19- 23). The questionnaire was self-administered and included OQLQ, the Big Five Inventory and Self- esteem Scale. Craniodentofacial characteristics were assessed by the Index of Complexity, Outcome and Need (ICON) and Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (ICON) – Dental Health and Aesthetic Component (DHC, AC), craniofacial indices of Martin and Saller, and photogrammetric profile analysis. Explanatory factor analysis and Pearson correlation were used for data analysis. RESULTS: Factor analysis detected four subscales of OQLQ similar to the original instrument. Internal consistencies were: social aspect - Cronbach alpha (α) =0.82, average inter-item correlation (r) =0.40 ; facial aesthetics - α=0.83, r=0.56 ; oral function - α=0.83, r=0.56 ; awareness of dentofacial aesthetics - α=0.77, r=0.48. The OQLQ does not correlate with measurable craniodentofacial characteristics. Self-esteem correlated to social aspect (r=-0.569) and facial aesthetics (r=-0.398) dimensions of OQLQ. Self- percieved smile aesthetics correlated with oral function (r=0.270). Extraversion correlated with social aspect (r=-0.302) and facial aesthetics (r=-0.250), while neuroticism correlated with the social aspect of OQLQ (r=0.253). CONCLUSION: Orthognathic quality of life does not correlate with measurable craniodentofacial characteristics, and correlation with personality traits and self- esteem is low.
