Sažetak
Aim: Higher lightness and lower chroma of anterior teeth make people more satisfied with their smile esthetics, however, these elements of color are weak predictors of satisfaction. One of the reasons of patients` dissatisfaction could be a degree of perfectionism. Therefore the aim of this research is to explore the influence of perfectionism on the short-term changes in satisfaction with smile esthetics and quality of life induced by tooth whitening. Materials and Methods: A total of 95 participants were assessed for eligibility, 70 were randomly assigned into active and placebo group and after follow-up sixty subjects were analysed, randomly assigned to active or placebo group (N=30 each). Their age range was 19 to 28 years (median 22 years, interquartile range 20- 23 years) and 75% were females. Anterior teeth of active group were whitened with a photo- activated gel. Questionnaires Smile Esthetics- Related Quality of Life and Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale were administrated. Institutional Review Board gave its consent for this study (No: 2170-24-01-15-04), and all the subjects signed the informed consent. It was registrated on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03380702). Results: Active group demonstrated increase in dental self-confidence and decrease in dissatisfaction with color (p<0.05). The amount of color change did not correlate linearly with change of dissatisfaction nor quality of life. In subjects with higher perfectionism, increasing the color change leads to more decrease in dental self-consiousness. Conclusion: Perfectionism moderates perception of smile esthetics.
