Aims: The aim of this study is to determine the attitudes and perceptions of 8-10-year-old children regarding smile aesthetics.
Methods: The cross-sectional study included 159 children aged 8-10 and their parents who were undergoing treatment in the Department of Pedodontics at İstanbul University. Participants were asked to fill out a questionnaire consisting of 26 questions. The first 8 questions aimed to assess the socio-demographic characteristics of the families, while the remaining 18 questions measured the attitudes and perceptions of children regarding smile aesthetics in 7 categories. The categories included satisfaction/dissatisfaction, honesty, sacrifice/deceit, selfishness, extroversion/introversion, personal happiness, intelligence, health status, and leadership. Photographs of children with different dental conditions (normally aligned teeth, crowded incisors, and diastema) were shown to the participants. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 25.0 software.
Results: Data regarding the seven areas of interest showed that children aged 8-10 years viewed their peers with normally-aligned teeth more favourably as far as extroversion and health status were concerned (p=0.042 and p=0.022 respectively). However, there was no statistically significant difference with regard to satisfaction/dissatisfaction, honesty, sacrifice/deceit, selfishness, personal happiness, intelligence and leadership in children with harmonious, as opposed to crowded or diastema.
Conclusion: Our study suggests that smile aesthetics have a significant impact on social perception during childhood. Orthodontic treatments not only affect smile aesthetics but also influence individuals' social aspects.

Bu çalışmanın amacı 8-10 yaş grubu çocukların gülümseme estetiğine ilişkin tutum ve algılarını belirlemektir. Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışmaya İstanbul Üniversitesi Pedodonti Ana Bilim Dalı'nda tedavi gören 8-10 yaş arası 159 çocuk ve ebeveynleri dahil edilmiştir. Katılımcılardan 26 sorudan oluşan anket formunu doldurmaları istenmiştir. Anketteki ilk 8 soru ailelerin sosyodemografik özelliklerini değerlendirmeyi amaçlarken, geriye kalan 18 soru ise çocukların gülüş estetiği ile ilgili tutum ve algılarını ölçen 7 kategoriden oluşmaktadır. Bunlar memnuniyet/memnuniyetsizlik; dürüstlük, fedakarlık/yalancılık, bencillik; dışa dönüklük/içe dönüklük; kişisel mutluluk; zeka; sağlıklı olma durumu ve liderlik ile ilgilidir. Katılımcılara gösterilen çocukların fotoğrafları, düzgün diş dizilimine sahip (ok tip), çapraşık kesici dişlere sahip (c tip) ve diastemalı dişlere sahip (d tip) olacak şekilde hazırlanmıştır. Veriler SPSS 25.0 yazılım programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Verilerin istatiksel analizlerine göre 8-10 yaş grubu arasındaki çocuklar, düzgün diş dizilimine sahip akranlarını istatiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde daha dışa dönük bulmaktadırlar (p=0.042). Ayrıca sağlık açısından “ok tip” grubundaki erkekler ile “c tip” grubundaki erkekler arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur (p=0.022). Ancak üç grup arasında kişisel mutluluk, zeka, liderlik, memnuniyet ve dürüstlük açısından anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmemiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara dayanarak, gülüş estetiğinin çocukluk döneminde sosyal algı üzerinde önemli bir etkisi olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Yapılan ortodontik tedavilerin yalnızca gülümseme estetiği üzerine değil, kişilerin sosyal yönleri üzerinde de etkisi bulunmaktadır.
