📝Abstract

The practice of orthodontics is faced with new trends. Adults are increasingly aware of the influence of appearance in their personal and professional lives. A 1999 study showed that the number of adults seeking orthodontic care has been declining. Furthermore, this study concluded that this trend is not likely to improve without a biological or technological breakthrough. Adults make up only a small percentage of the patients in orthodontic practices in the United States. Possible explanations for the small number of adult patients include fear of pain or discomfort and esthetic concerns associated with general orthodontic treatment. Moreover, hygiene and periodontal health are confounding factors associated with adult treatment.
