Gokturk O, et al. - Authors developed and validated a periodontal aesthetic specific tool to evaluate aesthetic conditions perceived by patients with periodontal problems. One item was removed from the scale according to the results of the Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). A two-domain structure was seen in the final 6-item questionnaire. For the whole scale, cronbach's alpha was 0.766. Overall, a good reliability of the Periodontal Aesthetic Perception Scale (PAPS) was demonstrated by these findings.
