Abstract

In order to design a more life-like smile, it is necessary to co-relate it to the personality of the subject. It is possible using a novel concept of “Visagism”. With the Visagism concept, clinicians can design a smile that blends the patient’s physical appearance with his/her personality and desires. Aim: To find out as to whether the concept of Visagism is present in dentate individuals. Setting and Design: A self-reporting questionnaire was formulated which highlighted the reaction of female subjects to different situations in life and hence their personality was determined. Materials and Methods: The photographs of teeth of the same subjects were taken, and their tooth forms, long axes, and embrasure lines were drawn using the software. Statistical Analysis Used: These parameters were then statistically analyzed and correlated with the individual personality. Results and Conclusion: A definite correlation was found between the temperament and the parameters of a smile. The parameter of tooth form was more closely related to the personality and the most common temperament was found out.
