Abstract | Orthodontic treatment, while beneficial for improving dental alignment and function, can pose various oral health challenges, including the development of oral lesions. These lesions may result from the mechanical forces exerted by orthodontic appliances, poor oral hygiene, or trauma to soft tissues. Understanding the prevalence and types of oral lesions in orthodontic patients is essential for developing strategies to prevent and manage these conditions. The study seeks to explore the correlation between these factors and the occurrence of oral lesions, highlighting the need for regular monitoring and preventive measures during orthodontic treatment to ensure optimal oral health. Furthermore, this research highlights the critical need for regular monitoring of oral health during orthodontic treatment and the importance of patient education regarding proper oral hygiene techniques and the management of appliance-related irritation. Preventive measures, such as routine professional cleanings and the use of adjunctive products such as chlorhexidine mouthwash, usage of dental floss, educating with appropriate brushing technique, recommending the usage orthodontic waxes and accompanied dietary counselling may help in reduction of the incidence of these lesions. |
