Purpose: This study investigated the influence of tooth color on patients' satisfaction with the esthetics of their smiles.Materials and Methods: A shade guide was used to determine the color of the maxillary anterior teeth in 671 participants. Self-reported satisfaction was assessed through five criteria: tooth appearance, color, shape, and position and appearance of the gingiva. The Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics Questionnaire and an Oral Impact on Daily Performances questionnaire were also used.Results: The predictors of higher patient satisfaction were lower chroma, higher lightness, and uniform color of all maxillary anterior teeth. These are significant but weak predictors of satisfaction with smile esthetics.Conclusion: Color has a low level of influence on satisfaction with a smile's esthetics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
