“…For this reason, if not done correctly, it can end up in extensive treatments that can generate repercussions such as root resorption and increased sensitivity to pain, in addition to affecting esthetics. Therefore, if the diagnostic results indicate that the patient's desired results are not achievable with orthodontic treatment alone, orthognathic surgery or a combination of both should be considered as a therapeutic method [12], as is the case in borderline patients for whom orthodontic treatment is chosen due to cultural, esthetic and financial conditions, even if they are surgical cases [13].…”

Dentofacial anomalies, also known as malocclusions, are alterations with a congenital, traumatic, or growth origin. These anomalies can generate functional and aesthetic problems in those who suffer from them and have been reported by the World Health Organization as the third most prevalent oral disease. The most commonly used methods for correcting these anomalies are orthodontics and orthognathic surgery. The diagnosis, and the correct selection of the treatment to be carried out, are part of an extensive process that involves collecting different cephalometric and clinical data, and depend on the clinician's experience. Therefore, no standardized process allows the classification or diagnosis among patients who achieve the best result with orthodontics, that is, non-surgical procedures or if surgical intervention is necessary. This study aims to propose a digital tool based on machine learning algorithms that may help the clinician to select an orthodontics or surgical treatment for patients who are about to start their treatment.

Objectives An assessment of orthodontic treatment duration and results allows for measurable outcomes, goal-setting, and the establishment of patient management standards. It is important information that can be utilised for educational purposes in an orthodontic postgraduate program. The aim of this study was to determine correlations of the parameters within and between the Objective Grading System (OGS), Discrepancy Index (DI) and Treatment Complexity Index (TCI) and identify those factors associated with treatment outcomes and duration. Materials and methods This retrospective cohort study involved a consecutive sampling of 242 pre- and post-treatment patient records from the postgraduate orthodontic clinic between 2013 and 2017. The cases were assessed using the DI, OGS, and TCI pre-treatment. Treatment outcomes were assessed using the OGS. Spearman’s Rank Correlation Coefficients were computed within and between the indices. Multiple and logistic regressions were used to evaluate associations between treatment outcomes and duration, respectively. Results Within DI, significant correlations (p < 0.05) were observed between overjet-overbite, overjet-occlusal relationship, overjet-crowding, overbite-anterior open bite, overbite-crowding, anterior open bite-lateral open bite, anterior open bite-crowding, lingual posterior cross bite-crowding. Within pre-OGS, significant correlations (p < 0.05) were observed between alignment-marginal ridge, alignment-occlusal relationship, alignment-root angulation, overjet-interproximal contact, marginal ridge-buccolingual inclination, marginal ridge-overjet, marginal ridge-occlusal contact, marginal ridge-occlusal relationship, overjet-occlusal contact, overjet-occlusal relationship, overjet-root angulation, occlusal relationship-root angulation, interproximal contact-root angulation. Within TCI, functional appliance correlated with orthognathic surgery (p < 0.001), rapid palatal expansion (RPE) (p = 0.005) and multidisciplinary collaboration (p = 0.001). Pre-OGS correlated with DI (p < 0.001) and TCI (p = 0.026). Cephalometric (p = 0.002) and other conditions (p = 0.031) were associated with treatment outcomes. RPE was associated with extended treatment duration (p = 0.014). Conclusions DI, OGS, and TCI exhibited weak correlations within and between indices. Cephalometric values, clinical conditions, and RPE use should be carefully considered during treatment planning.
