Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe use of psychometric tools to assess various psychological aspects of malocclusion and treatment is increasing in orthodontics. Mere evaluation of an orthodontic patient with normative criteria is not enough; instead, the psychological status should be assessed using a questionnaire. Many generic and few condition-specific tools are available for assessing quality of life (QoL) in orthodontics. The steps involved in the development of such tools are complex and unknown to many. This article outlines the methodology involved in the development and validation of a psychometric tool fo

Orthodontic treatment, especially during the period of active growth, can significantly affect the development of the jaws and teeth. Treatment with extraction of molars is more complicated because the space that needs to be closed is larger than the premolar spaces and the time of treatment will be longer. However, in cases where we have a lack of space, teeth protrusion or dental asymmetry, and the extraction of permanent teeth is indicated, the damaged molars should be the first option for extraction when premolars are in better condition.
