“…On the contrary in an exclusive study on the orthodontic treatment need in school students of Dubai City, it was found that children belonging to India had a higher need of orthodontic treatment compared with those belonging to UAE, Iran, Syria, and Yemen. 23 In Iran, Hedayati et al obtained similar results (18.4%) in a sample aged between 11 and 14 years, same as Puertes-Fernández et al in a sample of 12-year-old children in the Western Sahara (18.1%). 24,25 However, studies done by Singh et al, 14 showed 68.4% need orthodontic treatment.…”

: Epidemiology of malocclusion and assessment of orthodontic treatment needs are of great importance in many countries and are included in numerous national-level surveys. The aim of orthodontic treatment is to achieve the best possible occlusion within the framework of function, stability, and esthetics. The present study aims to assess the prevalence of malocclusion and Orthodontic treatment needs of 12–15-year-old school-going childrenusing the Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN) of Khudel Village, Madhya Pradesh, Indore. 300 school children (180 girls and 120 boys) of government schools of age group 12-15-year-old were examined. Type 3 examination method was used to record the orthodontic treatment need was using the Index of Orthodontic Treatment Needs (IOTN). Result showed that only 38.6% had no need of treatment, (23.3%) were assigned grade 2 of IOTN Dental Health Component (DHC) score, (14.3%) required borderline treatment, (12.3%) of the total population required severe orthodontic treatment that is score 4. Extreme treatment is required by (11.3%) of the study population. : There seems to be an inconsistency in the proportion of children needing orthodontic treatment on esthetic and dental health basis. It indicates a general lack of awareness among the school children about the severity of their existing malocclusion. More awareness programs and camps need to be conducted regarding spread of awareness of orthodontic treatment needs.

ObjectivesTo estimate the pooled prevalence estimates of the malocclusion among child and adolescent population of India.ContentsA comprehensive electronic search was carried to find studies related to assessing malocclusion in Indian children and adolescent population. Indices and classifications considered for pooled analysis were Dental Aesthetic Index, Index of Orthodontic Treatment Needs, Angles classification and terminal plane relationship of primary secondary molars. An eligibility criterion was prepared and quality assessment was done for all the eligible studies. Initial search produced 1090 titles. After removal of duplicates, 850 records were left for further screening. Eighty one articles were found eligible for full text reading. Finally 60 studies were included in this meta-analysis. Pooled prevalence was used to estimate overall effect, with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Statistical difference between the two genders was calculated using chi square test.Summary and outlookThe high prevalence of malocclusion is a public health problem around the world. The current status of burden of malocclusion among Indian children and adolescents is not known. Results of this pooled analysis showed that prevalence of malocclusion among Indian children and adolescents has increased since the last national oral health survey. Prevalence of malocclusion ranged from 28.4% (CI 25.02, 31.9) to 66.7% (CI 50.7, 81.06) depending on the type of index or classification used for recording. Boys recorded higher cumulative prevalence than girls. These findings can be utilized by oral health policy makers to draft measures required for reducing this burden of malocclusion.

“…Dental component of the index includes various occlusal traits which are divided into five categories (degrees), depending on the severity. The first and second degree -no need or slight need for orthodontic treatment, the third degreeborderline need for the therapy and the fourth and fifth degree indicate a great need for orthodontic treatment [ 2,3,6,7,8,9].…”

Background / Aim. The biggest motivating factor for undertaking of orthodontic treatment is poor dental aesthetics, as a consequence of occlusal abnormalities. The aim of this study is to determine the need for orthodontic treatment on the basis of aesthetic componentsof IOTN index (the index of orthodontic treatment need), to compare the degree of aesthetic component of IOTN and subjective perception of individuals about their dental aesthetics, and to compare the evaluation of the aesthetic component of IOTN subject in comparison with evaluation of the therapist. Methods. The study was conducted on a sample of 316 students, age 15-19 years old, who were not in orthodontic treatment prior to the survey. The research was done by the usage of the index of orthodontic treatment need (IOTN)which consists of dental and aesthetic components on the basis of which the need for therapy is determined. The aesthetic component of the index was noted by the therapist (specialist of orthodontics), as well as subject himself. Results. According to grades of subjects the need for orthodontic treatment is present with 0.38 % of male subjects and 2.00 % of female subjects. According to evaluations of the therapists, the need for orthodontic treatment is present in 7.52 % of male subjects and 8.00% of female subjects. Observing all subjects , the need for orthodontic treatment is present in 0.63% of subjects, and according to the therapist the need for orthodontic treatment is present in 7.59% of subjects. The mentioned difference is statistically significant. Conclusion. Obtained results show that there is a significant difference about the dental aesthetics and the need for orthodontic treatment between the subjects and therapists. This can be a cause for concern, because patients who are not aware of their orthodontic abnormality can limit the need for further treatment.
