Orthodontic treatment typically occurs during early childhood and adolescence but the wearing of dental braces is often associated with sudden changes in eating patterns that prolong treatment into the teenage years. Despite these changes, psychological assessments related to eating disorders during the course of orthodontic treatment are often ignored. Based on the findings of the present case report, it is suggested that adolescent patients who wear braces and exhibit severe weight loss should be carefully monitored for psychiatric problems, including eating disorders.

“…Eating disorders (EDs) are psychiatric disorders characterized by abnormal routine eating-related behaviors [1][2][3], and patients often correlate them with psychological concerns related to their weight and body image [1,2]. A mortality rate of up to 25% has been reported for patients with EDs [4][5][6][7]; and the prevalence of EDs is higher in females compared with males [4,5,8,9]. The most common forms of EDs are anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN) [7,10,11].…”

“…A mortality rate of up to 25% has been reported for patients with EDs [ 4 – 7 ]; and the prevalence of EDs is higher in females compared with males [ 4 , 5 , 8 , 9 ]. The most common forms of EDs are anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN) [ 7 , 10 , 11 ]. The primary characteristic of AN includes restriction of food intake due to a persistent fear of becoming overweight, even though the affected individual is underweight [ 1 , 5 , 10 , 11 ]; whereas, BN is characterized by binge eating which, is often followed by self-induced vomiting in order to maintain a low body weight [ 1 , 5 , 6 , 10 , 12 ].…”

Objectives: The aim was to review the available literature regarding the potential association between fixed orthodontic treatment (OT) and the onset of eating disorders (EDs).Method and Materials: Six indexed databases were searched until November 2020. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (a) patients undergoing fixed OT and (b) EDs in relation to fixed OT. Commentaries, letters to the Editor, reviews, and studies in patients with EDs not undergoing fixed OT were excluded. The pattern of the present review was customized to summarize the pertinent information.Results: Four out of 10,076 initially-identified studies were included, and all of them were case reports. All patients were females, and the EDs reported were either anorexia nervosa (AN) or bulimia nervosa (BN). In three case reports, patients developed EDs after the initiation of OT. Fixed OT was performed in all the studies, and a variety of oral complications such as sore mouth, gingivitis, tooth surface demineralization, and others were reported.Conclusion: Based upon the limited available evidence, the association between OT and the onset of EDs remains unclear. Further well-designed observational clinical studies are needed in this regard.
