Abstract

INTRODUCTION : Orthodontic treatment is a treatment of diagnosis, prevention and correction of malpositioned teeth, jaws and also any misaligned bite patterns. Modifying facial growth is known as dentofacial orthopedics. Among people abnormal alignment of teeth and jaws has become common.  Individuals with malocclusions are not satisfied with their facial appearance, resulting in inappropriate social responses and development of emotional and dental problems.

AIM : The aim of this study was to conduct a survey about orthodontic treatment among participants who had undergone orthodontic treatment.

MATERIALS AND METHOD : This  cross-sectional study was done among orthodontic patients about orthodontic treatment. The questionnaire was composed of 17 questions and this questionnaire was circulated among 127 patients in Hyderabad through google forms. The results were analysed by statistically using SPSS software  with p value of p<0.05 of 95% confidence level.

RESULTS :  In the present study we observed that out of 127 participants 51.24% are male and 48% were female. 89.26% were of age  18 - 35, 9.92% of them were of age 35 - 50 and 0.83% of them were of age 50 and above. Among 127 patients who responded, 97.52% were orthodontic patients and the remaining 2.48% were normal patients. 68.60% participants have undergone orthodontic treatment to improve their facial appearance, 14.88% participants have undergone orthodontic treatment to improve chewing efficiency and 16.53% have undergone orthodontic treatment through dentist suggestion.

CONCLUSION : The present study from the survey thus concluded that orthodontic treatment was beneficial for the majority of the participants...
