Abstract(s)
Objetivos: Avaliar o efeito das diferentes orientações dos sorrisos de acordo com o conceito facial flow na perceção da atratividade do sorriso em faces assimétricas e se essa perceção varia entre Leigos e Médicos Dentistas, e se a principal área de atuação dos Médicos Dentistas (MD), o género e a faixa etária dos participantes são fatores relevantes para alterar essa perceção. Métodos: Estudo observacional transversal aprovado pela Comissão de Ética da Universidade Fernando Pessoa. Foi criado um modelo facial simétrico (MFS), posteriormente um modelo facial assimétrico (MFA) de onde se obtiveram 10 imagens com diferentes direções da linha média dentária (LMD) e diferentes inclinações da linha comissural (LC) e do plano oclusal (PO). Amostra de conveniência de Leigos e MD que preencheram um questionário online, classificando a auto perceção de atratividade das 12 imagens (escala VAS: 0 = “nada atraente”); 10 = “muito atraente”). Análise de dados não paramétrica (α=0,05) utilizando o IBM© SPSS® Statistics vs.28.0. Resultados: Amostra com 250 Leigos e 100 MD. Na MFA c/ a LMD coincidente com a LFF não é detetada diferença entre Leigos e MD, e genericamente os MD classificam a atratividade de forma significativamente inferior aos leigos em todas as imagens exceto na MFS em que se inverte esse resultado. São detetadas diferenças significativas por área de atuação do MD, mas menos por género do inquirido, ou por faixa etária do participante. Conclusões: Os MD demonstram ser mais exigentes quanto à estética facial do que os Leigos. O género, a faixa etária e a área de atuação dos MD são fatores relevantes na perceção de atratividade.
Goals: Evaluate the effect of different smile orientations according to the facial flow concept on the perception of smile attractiveness in asymmetric faces and if it is consistent among both dentists and laypersons, and if the dentist’s area of operation, gender and the age group of the participants are relevant factors to change this perception. Methods: Cross-sectional observational study approved by the Ethics Committee of Fernando Pessoa University. A symmetrical facial model (SFM), later an asymmetrical facial model (AFM) from which 10 images were obtained with different directions of the dental midline (DML) and different inclinations of the commissural line (CL) and occlusal plane (OP). Convenience sample of Laypersons and Dentists who filled out an online questionnaire, rating the self-perception of attractiveness of the 12 images (VAS scale: 0 = “not attractive at all”; 10 = “very attractive”). Non-parametric data analysis (α=0.05) u i g IBM©SPSS® Statistics vs.28.0. Results: Sample with 250 Laypersons and 100 Dentists. In AFM with DML coincident with FFL, no difference is detected between Laypersons and Dentists, and generally Dentists rate attractiveness significantly lower than Laypersons in all images except for SFM in which this result is reversed. Significant differences are detected by dentist’s area of operation, but less by gender of the respondent, or by age group of the participant. Conclusions: Dentists are more demanding in terms of facial aesthetics than Laypersons. Gender, age group and dentist's area of operation are relevant factors in the perception of attractiveness.
