They completed the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI)-II, and the psychological domain of the World Health Organization Quality of Life 26 (Psych-QOL) for assessment of anxiety, depression, and body image, respectively. No significant effects on psychological assessment scores due to sex or age differences were found. Surgical orthodontic treatment patients and patients with skeletal Class III had significantly higher STAI-Trait and/or BDI-II scores and lower Psych-QOL score. Based on the linear mixed-effects model, the choice of surgical orthodontic treatment had a significant effect on the STAI-Trait, BDI-II, and Psych-QOL scores. No significant interaction effect was found between the choice of surgical orthodontic treatment and the skeletal pattern by ANB angle. Patients with skeletal Class I or III who chose surgical orthodontic treatment had higher STAI-Trait and/or BDI-II scores and/or lower body image score, respectively. These results suggest that patients who chose surgical orthodontic treatment, particularly those with skeletal Class I and III, may be more prone to experience anxiety and depression and have body image dissatisfaction.
