Öğe Anamnesis and examination forms used in orthodontic clinics: A pilot study(Mosby-Elsevier, 2022) Meric, Pamir; Kilinc, Delal DaraIntroduction: Examination is a basic step in the treatment of patients. This study aimed to assess the examina-tion forms of different private and university orthodontic clinics. Methods: Examination forms were collected from 21 university and 21 private orthodontic clinics. The 80 questions examined in the study were evaluated under 3 subheadings (demographic questions, systemic disease questions, and dental questions). Results: In the eval-uation among the groups, the number of questions asked in universities was statistically significantly higher in terms of the total number of questions asked. The number of university questions was statistically significantly higher in the evaluation among the groups of dental questions (P <0.05). In all of the subheadings, there were statistically significant differences between groups and parents??? occupation, e-mail, reference, pricing, and per-sonal data protection law questions (P <0.05); breathing pattern question (P <0.05); tongue function, frenulum assessment, transverse problem, jaw deviation, midline, dentition, canine relationship, overjet, overbite, number of teeth, impacted tooth, shape anomaly, dental trauma, profile, and incisal exposure questions (P <0.05). Conclusions: There is no consensus on the examination forms used in orthodontics clinics. Although both uni-versities and private clinics aim to treat orthodontic patients, the questions they asked were different in accor-dance with their dynamics.

A prospective split-mouth study(Springer Heidelberg, 2022) Meric, Pamir; Kilinc, Delal DaraObjectives The assessment of whether different orthodontic pliers used in bracket debonding have different effects on pain and sensitivity experience. Materials and methods Thirty-three patients (17 females, 16 males) with metal brackets were included in the study. Compressed air and freshly melted ice water were applied to each tooth (6-6) in upper and lower arch before bracket debonding (T0), just after debonding (T1), and 1 week after debonding (T2). Bracket remover plier (BRP) and Weingart plier (WP) were used to debond brackets. A numeric rating scale (NRS) was used to assess sensitivity for each tooth at T0, T1, and T2. Tooth pain was assessed for each tooth using NRS during bracket debonding. Results Statistically higher pain scores were found in teeth U4 (upper first premolar) (p = 0.017) and L6 (lower first molar) (p = 0.026) in Weingart plier group. No statistically significant difference was found during debonding in the other teeth between groups. Statistically high sensitivity score was found at T1 time point in tooth U3 (upper canine) by applying air stimulus in Weingart plier group (p = 0.024). There was no statistically significant difference between the sensitivity scores measured at T2 time point by applying air and cold stimuli between groups. Conclusions Although the debonding pain scores were statistically significant in two teeth and the sensitivity score in one tooth, there was no clinical significance between the two pliers in terms of pain and sensitivity.
