Brief summary
Background: Bonded composite bite turbos are an efficient tool in the treatment of deep bite malocclusion. Patient satisfaction with orthodontic appliances has been correlated with treatment success. The aim of this study is to evaluate the level of patient satisfaction associated with bonded composite anterior bite turbos in deep bite treatment. Materials and Methods: Sixty patients with anterior deep bite malocclusion were treated with composite bite turbos bonded to the maxillary central incisors. A questionnaire form using the Likert scale with 5 responses (very unpleasant, unpleasant, acceptable, pleasant and very pleasant) was used by patients to document their satisfaction and feedback regarding the bite turbos after 1 week and 1 month. Statistical analyses with chi-square test was used to analyze the data for statistical significance.
