Abstract
Objective: To evaluate patients’ acceptance of different orthodontic tooth extraction protocols as a treatment option to Class II malocclusion. Materials and Methods: Adult patients seeking orthodontic treatment were asked to fill out a questionnaire related to premolars extraction acceptance. The sample was divided into 2 groups: 30 patients who didn’t need premolars extractions and 30 patients who needed to have premolars extracted. Results: Patients who had a planning treatment including premolars extractions seemed to be more worried about the extraction need, but there was no difference between the acceptance of different protocols of extraction when groups were compared. Conclusion: Patient’s acceptance of orthodontic tooth extraction protocols is high, regardless if it is necessary or not.
