Implications of orthodontic treatment on esthetics, oral health and quality of life in adult patients
Early diagnosis of periodontal conditions during orthodontic treatment is essential for treatment success. Orthodontists should instruct patients on appropriate oral hygiene practices and on detecting changes in periodontal status, as well as should recommend periodontal consultation when needed. Orthodontic treatment in adult patients, through esthetic and functional improvement, should lead to an improvement in psychosocial wellbeing and an increase in quality of life.
