Abstract

Abstract: Oral health management during orthodontic treatment is crucial for ensuring the effectiveness of the treatment. Proper oral health management can accelerate the orthodontic process, alleviate adverse reactions, and improve quality of life. Currently, there is a lack of systematic and comprehensive guidance on oral health management for patients undergoing orthodontic treatment both domestically and internationally. To further standardize oral health management during the orthodontic period, this paper summarized relevant literature from home and abroad through discussions among experts, established health management protocols for fixed, invisible, and functional orthodontics, aiming to provide references and guidance for orthodontists and patients.

Key words: Orthodontic period, Oral health management, Malocclusion, Management process
