Study Notes

Socio-behavioral Factors in Orthodontic Patients

Socio-behavioral factors, such as a patient's attitude, motivation, and understanding of treatment benefits, significantly impact treatment compliance.

Clinical Examination

The purpose of the clinical examination is to identify pathological and developmental problems and determine required diagnostic records.
The lower third of the face can be divided into thirds, with the upper lip in the upper third and the lower lip in the lower two-thirds.

Treatment Duration

The age of the patient influences the estimated treatment duration, with younger patients potentially requiring longer treatment times.
Younger patients' jaws and teeth are still developing, contributing to longer treatment times.
Older patients with fully developed jaws may require shorter treatment times.
Dental pathology significantly influences the treatment plan, and additional radiographs and special tests (such as vitality tests) may be required.
