Résumé

Objectif : Il y a une augmentation globale du besoin et de la demande de traitement orthodontique. L'objectif de cette étude était d'évaluer l'impact de la malocclusion sur la qualité de vie en lien avec la santé buccodentaire chez les patients souhaitant un traitement orthodontique.
Matériels et méthodes : Soixante et un patients nécessitant un traitement orthodontique ont complété le questionnaire OHRQoL (Oral Health Related Quality of Life) version anglaise et le questionnaire sur l'impact psychosocial de l'esthétique dentaire (PIDAQ). Les moyennes et écarts-types pour la population d'étude ont été déterminés pour l'ensemble du OHRQoL-UK et du PIDAQ en utilisant des statistiques non-paramétriques avec un niveau de significativité P < 0,05. La corrélation entre les scores globaux et sous-échelles de la qualité de vie faite en utilisant le OHRQoL-UK, le PIDAQ et l'indice esthético-dentaire (DAI) respectivement, a été analysée par la corrélation de Spearman.
Résultats : L'augmentation des scores moyens PIDAQ différait significativement avec les grades plus élevés de DAI. Des corrélations faibles à modérées significatives existaient entre les scores globaux des PIDAQ, des SI et des sous-échelles AC et DAI (p ≤ 0,01). Il y avait une faible corrélation négative entre l'ensemble des OHRQoL-UK et des PIDAQ qui était significative (r = -0,27, p < 0,05). Une faible corrélation négative significative a été observée entre les sous-échelles psychologique et sociale de OHRQoL-UK et de PIDAQ (p < 0,05).
Conclusion : Au fur et à mesure que la gravité de la malocclusion augmentait, l'impact sur OHRQoL devenait plus important tant sur OHRQoL-UK que sur PIDAQ. Une relation faible existe entre OHRQoL-UK et PIDAQ, par conséquent, ces instruments devraient être utilisés pour se compléter.

Abstract
Impact of malocclusion on oral health-related quality of life among patients seeking orthodontic treatment

Objective: There has been a global increase in the need and demand for orthodontic treatment. This aim of this study was to assess the impact of malocclusion on oral health-related quality of life among patients seeking orthodontic treatment.
Matérials and methods: Sixty-one patients requiring orthodontic treatment completed the United Kingdom Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL-UK) questionnaire and the Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics Questionnaire (PIDAQ). Mean and standard deviation scores for the population was determined for the overall OHRQoL-UK and PIDAQ using non-parametric statistics at the P < 0.05 significance level. The correlation between the overall and subscale quality of life scores using the OHRQoL-UK and PIDAQ and the DAI (Dental Aesthetics Index) respectively was determined using the Spearman’s correlation analysis.
Results: The increase in mean PIDAQ scores significantly differed with higher DAI grades. Significant weak to moderate correlations existed between participants’ overall PIDAQ, SI and AC subscale scores and DAI (p ≤ 0.01). There was a weak negative correlation between overall OHRQoL-UK and the overall PIDAQ which was significant (r = -0.27, p < 0.05). Significant weak negative correlation was observed between the Psychological and Social subscales of OHRQoL-UK and PIDAQ (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: As severity of malocclusion increased, the impact on OHRQoL worsened with both the OHRQoL-UK and PIDAQ. A weak relationship exists between OHRQoL-UK and PIDAQ, therefore, these instruments should be used to complement each other.
