目的：评估错牙合畸形对生活质量的影响。材料与方法：这项横断面研究涉及150名参加基层医疗单位的受试者，没有正畸治疗的历史。在研究模型上测量了10个咬合特征的牙齿美学指数（DAI）。口腔健康相关的生活质量（OHRQoL）进行了评估与马来西亚版的口腔健康影响问卷（OHIP-14）。斯皮尔曼秩和相关系数用于评价错牙合畸形与生活质量的关系。结果：DAI与OHRQoL之间存在显著的弱相关（r = 0.176）。女性和较年轻年龄组（12-19岁）在OHIP-14上的得分往往高于其同龄人。对于男性，域3（心理不适; r = 0.462），域4（身体残疾; r = 0.312），域7（障碍; r = 0.309）和总分（r = 0.289）与DAI的相关性较弱，但与女性相比具有显著性。老年组表现出显着的弱相关性，在域3（心理不适; r = .268）和域7（障碍; r = .238），而年轻的年龄组没有表现出相关性与任何domain.Conclusions：DAI评分不预测错牙合对OHRQoL的影响。
Objective: To assess the impact of malocclusion on the quality of life.Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 150 subjects attending the Primary Care Unit with no history of orthodontic treatment. The Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI) with 10 occlusal characteristics were measured on study models. Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) was assessed with the Malaysian version of the Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-14). The Spearman rank-order correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the relationship between the malocclusion and quality of life.Results: Significantly weak correlations (r = .176) were found between the DAI and the OHRQoL. Females and the younger age group (12-19 years) tended to score higher on the OHIP-14 than their counterparts. For males, domain 3 (psychological discomfort; r = .462), domain 4 (physical disability; r = .312), domain 7 (handicap; r = .309), and overall score (r = .289) were weak correlates but significant to the DAI compared with females. The older age group showed a significant weak correlation in domain 3 (psychological discomfort; r = .268) and domain 7 (handicap; r = .238), whereas the younger age group showed no correlation with any domain.Conclusions: The DAI score does not predict the effect of malocclusion on the OHRQoL.
