Aim: To evaluate the association between the psychosocial impact of dental aesthetics with self-perceived discrimination in outpatients of a public hospital in Lima. Materials and Methods: A total of 207 outpatients were evaluated, between 18 and 30 years old. The psychosocial impact of dental aesthetics was evaluated with the Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics questionnaire (PIDAQ). Likewise, for self-perceived discrimination, questions were selected from the Peruvian National Household Survey on Living Conditions and Poverty 2017. In addition, other variables such as age, sex, education, income, ethnicity and reason for discrimination were evaluated. The Poisson regression with robust estimator of variance was used for the association of the variables, as well as for the calculation of the crude and adjusted prevalence ratios. The confidence level was 95% and the level of significance was established as p <0.05. Results: Those surveyed perceived themselves as discriminated according to the psychosocial impact of their dental aesthetics, observing a positive significant association between both variables (PR 1.02, 95% CI 1.01 –1.03). Conclusions: The psychosocial impact of dental aesthetics was found to be associated with self-perceived discrimination. In addition, those who self-perceived themselves discriminated were mostly women, of twenty-three years old on average, mestizos, with a low average economic income.
