Abstract:

 Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the post-treatment retention phase of the patients, whose orthodontic treatment has been completed, from the patients perspective. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 100 patients, between the ages of 8-18 and 18 years, who agreed to fill in 20 questionnaires using the Google forms program. According to the answers given by the patients, the patients perspectives about relapse after orthodontic treatment were evaluated. The obtained data were analyzed with the SPSS 21 package program according to criteria including gender, age, education level, and treatment type. The relationshipdependency between the variables was examined by chi-square analysis. Results: Patients who received fixed retainers after treatment reported a significantly higher retention rate 96.3. 83.3 of the patients whose retainer was broken reported moderate relapse in their teeth p0.001. A significant correlation was found between patients whose brackets were broken during orthodontic treatment and moderate relapse after treatment 70. Women 85.7 reported that they preferred clear aligners more than men p0.05 to orthodontic retreatment due to relapse. Conclusions: Success in the post-orthodontic retention phase may be related to patient cooperation. In our study, it was seen that patients with relapse preferred clear aligner treatments instead of fixed orthodontic treatments in the orthodontic retreatments.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı sabit ortodontik tedavi görmüş hastaların tedavi sonrası pekiştirme aşamasının hasta perspektifinden değerlendirilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu araştırma Google formlar programı kullanılarak 20 tane anket sorusunu doldurmayı kabul eden 8-18 ve 18 yaş arasındaki 100 hasta üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Hastaların verdikleri cevaplar doğrultusunda hastaların ortodontik tedavi sonrasında nüks hakkında bakış açıları değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler cinsiyet, yaş, eğitim durumu, tedavi şekli gibi kriterlere göre SPSS 21 paket programı aracılığı ile analiz edilmiştir. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiyebağımlılığa ki-kare analizi ile bakılmıştır. Bulgular: Ortodontik tedavi sonrası dişlerinde bozulma olmadığını düşünen bireylerin 96sında lingual retansiyon apareyi yapılmıştır. Retansiyon apareyi kırılan hastaların 83.3ü dişlerinde orta şiddette bozulma olduğunu bildirmiştir p0.001. Ortodontik tedavi sırasında braketi kırılan hastalar ile tedavi sonrasında orta şiddette bozulma olması arasında anlamlı bir bağlantı bulunmuştur 70. Dişlerindeki bozulmayı düzeltmek için şeffaf plak tedavisini kadınlar 85.7, erkeklere oranla daha fazla tercih ettiğini bildirmiştir p0.05. Sonuç: Ortodontik tedavi sonrası pekiştirme aşamasındaki başarı, hasta kooperasyonu ile bağlantılı olabilir. Çalışmamızda nüks olan hastaların ikinci ortodontik tedavilerde sabit tel tedavisi yerine şeffaf plak tedavilerini tercih ettiği görülmüştür.
