Abstract

(1) This study aimed to generate a simplified form of the Malaysian psychosocial impact of dental aesthetics questionnaire (PIDAQM]) and validate its use in the sociodental approach for estimating orthodontic treatment need. (2) Two eight-item forms were derived: an impact simplified PIDAQM] (ISP8), comprising the most impactful items as rated by 35 participants, and a regression simplified PIDAQM] (RSP8), derived from regression analysis of 590 participants' data from the PIDAQM] validation study. Their psychometric performances were assessed for internal consistency, validity (criterion and construct), reproducibility (reliability and agreement), and responsiveness to change. The sociodental estimates were based on 204 orthodontic patients' data who were assessed for normative need, impact-related need, and propensity-related need. McNemar analysis compared the sociodental estimates when both simplified PIDAQM] forms and the original PIDAQM] were used to measure impact-related need. (3) Both simplified PIDAQM] forms were valid, reproducible, and responsive. The sociodental estimates when using the ISP8 (38.2%) were similar to when the PIDAQM] (35.8%) was used (p > 0.05) but overestimated by 3.4% (p < 0.05) when the RSP8 (39.2%) was used as the assessment tool. (4) The simplified PIDAQM] can replace the original PIDAQM] in the sociodental approach to estimate the orthodontic treatment needs of the Malaysian population.
