| Abstract | ||
| Background: Functional and camouflage orthodontic treatments in cl II malocclusions are different treatment methods that are usually used in orthodontic practice. A comparison of patients' satisfaction with these two treatment groups is an important tool for the evaluation of treatment outcomes. Objectives: We aimed to compare patients' satisfaction with orthodontic treatment subjectively (according to the opinion of patients) between functional and camouflage orthodontic treatments in patients with class II malocclusion. Materials and methods: The sample of the study was formed from individuals whose treatments were finished between February 2017 and July 2020 at the Department of Orthodontics, Faculty of Dentistry at Suleyman Demirel University, Turkey. A satisfaction questionnaire was used to evaluate the satisfaction of the patients with the treatment process at the end of their treatment. The subjects of the study were selected from 2 genders and a total of 146 cases of average age 11-22 years. The research material consists of a satisfaction questionnaire that was given at the time of treatment end. Results: The general satisfaction questionnaire score was found to be higher in the patients who received functional orthodontic treatment (P-value = 0.011). In the subgroups, the total questionnaire scores among the treatment subgroups were found to be quite similar. Conclusion: In our study, the satisfaction level of the quality of life questionnaire was found to be high, while in response to more specific questions on satisfaction, some departments of the questionnaire found less satisfaction or dissatisfaction in patients. | ||
