“…Numerous researchers have established that personality traits have an impact on various health-related outcomes, out of which neuroticism is the most studied personality trait from the health point of view 29 . Studies indicate high prevalence of dental caries and poor oral health are common among neurotic people 30 , 31 . Among the five personality traits, we selected only two groups (higher neuroticism and higher agreeableness) since they are largely contrasting in nature and experience opposite patterns in disease incidence and progression.…”

The role of personality traits in modulating the incidence and progression of medical disease conditions are well documented, however, there is a paucity of information for its effects on dental health conditions and specifically on the prognosis of restorative dental materials. This study aims to evaluate the clinical performance of Micro-hybrid and Nano-ceramic composite restorations among patients with different personality traits. A total of 323 patients, indicated to receive operative treatment at a University Dental College Hospital, were invited to participate in this study. Consenting patients were requested to complete the Big Five Inventory (BFI-44 Item) personality questionnaire and were evaluated by a psychiatrist for categorizing the participants based on their personality traits. Out of the recruited patients, 124 patients falling in to the dominant trait of Agreeableness (n = 62) and Neuroticism (n = 62) were included in the study for further investigation. Next, patients from the Agreeableness (Group A) and the Neuroticism personality trait group (Group N) were randomly divided into two subgroups each—sub group Am (n = 44) and Nm (n = 48) for Micro-hybrid composite restorations and Sub group An (n = 42) and Nn (n = 47) for Nano-ceramic composite restorations. Two trained and calibrated dentists prepared the cavities according to previously published methodology. The restorations were evaluated at baseline (immediately after restoration), 6-months, 12-months and 24-months intervals by two blinded independent dental professionals for anatomical form, secondary caries, color match, retention, marginal adaptation, surface texture, marginal discoloration and post-operative sensitivity. There is no statistically significant difference noted in various parameters of restoration performance between Micro-hybrid composite and Nano-ceramic composite compared among ‘agreeableness’ personality group and among ‘neuroticism’ personality group after controlling the personality trait factor. Higher ‘Neuroticism’ individuals had higher restoration deterioration in color matching and surface texture when compared to higher ‘Agreeableness’ trait individuals. Regression analysis showed no effect of gender or cavity size on the outcome of results. Assessment of personality traits may serve as a useful tool during treatment planning which would aid clinicians in choosing suitable restorative dental material and prosthesis design according to individual patient’s physiological and functional needs, thereby overall improving the quality of treatment provided.

“…Two independent reviewers on screening the remaining data, finally included 70 articles in this meta-analysis after excluding 25 articles due to studies lacking the prevalence rate of dental caries, no specification of DMFT index and age not matching with the inclusion criteria.

“…12 The personality of each individual is made up of a mixture of specific characteristics. 13 Considering variability in personality traits and the fact that the personality of each individual is an important predictor of their health status, it seems that stress is also related to the characteristics forming personality. Thus, in most cases, the personality type is a good predictor of the stress status.…”

“…However, reports in this respect have been contradictory. 11,13 In 2014, Bob et al reported that an anxious and nervous personality was significantly positively correlated with the level of academic stress. 11 According to Batti et al, as the unique patterns of feeling, thinking and behaving shape the personality of an individual, personality traits determine to a great extent the university student's ability to handle academic issues as well as their general performance.…”

“…They are cool, flexible and emotional. 13,17,18 According to a study by Catipović-Veselica, the levels of aggressiveness and suspicion in individuals with type A personality are higher than in the case of type B personality; however, these groups are not significantly different regarding sociability and depression. 19 People living in different communities have different psychological conditions.…”
