  1. Index of Orthodontic TreatmentNeed modified for use inEpidemiological Surveys :Modified IOTN

  2. Written by Donald Burden and Cynthia Pine with assistance from the BASCD Working Party on Orthodontics

  3. Modified IOTN consists of two components: 1. Aesthetic Component 2. Dental Health Component

  4. Aesthetic Component Grades 1-7 No Definite Need for treatment Grades 8-10 Definite Need for treatment

  5. Recording the Aesthetic Component Ask subject to close on their back teeth Retract lips Grade the dental attractiveness of the anterior teeth

  6. Recording the Aesthetic Component The grade awarded is for overall dental attractiveness rather than specific morphological similarity to the photographs First impressions are usually correct Main aim is to differentiate those at 8 - 10

  7. Dental Health Component IOTN has been simplified to two categories:  Definite Need for Treatment  No Definite Need for Treatment The subject is examined for specific conditions and if one is found, a Definite Need for Treatment is recorded and no further conditions are sought.

  8. Recording the DHC Examine each subject for: Missing teeth Overjets Crossbites Displacement of contact points Overbites =MOCDO

  9. Recording the DHC Examine the subject using the ‘MOCDO’ scale As soon as a definite treatment need threshold is reached, then the examination is stopped

  10. ‘MOCDO’ Missing teeth Overjets Crossbites Displacement of contact points Overbites

  11. Missing Teeth (teeth not visible) • Congenital absence/traumatic loss • Ectopic teeth • Impacted teeth

  12. Missing Teeth Palatally ectopic canines Is the canine palpable in the buccalsulcus? If not, it is ectopic = Need for Treatment

  13. Missing Teeth IMPACTED if 4mm or less space is available between adjacent teeth Impacted = Need for Treatment

  14. Missing Teeth • (Congenital absence/traumatic loss) • In your opinion, is orthodontic treatment required to open or close the space? • If yes = Need for Treatment

  15. Original Slide No.15 ‘MOCDO’ Missing teeth Overjets Crossbites Displacement of contact points Overbites

  16. Measuring Overjets Increased overjets (Class II) and reverse overjets (Class III) are measured using the metal ruler

  17. Second line (red) – 6mm Positive overjets

  18. Measuring Overjets Measure to the labial aspect of the most prominentincisor Only record Need for Treatment if the overjet extends beyond the 6mm line

  19. Measuring Reverse Overjets All four incisors must be in lingual occlusion

  20. Measuring Reverse Overjets If the reverse overjet falls exactly on the 4mm (white line) record in the Definite Need for Treatment category

  21. First line (white) – 4mm Crowding Reverse overjets Open bites

  22. ‘MOCDO’ Missing teeth Overjets Crossbites Displacement of contact points Overbites

  23. Crossbites Can be anterior or posterior, but mostly posterior. Check for displacement on closure. If displacement on closure = Need for Treatment

  24. ‘MOCDO’ • Missing teeth • Overjets • Crossbites • Displacement of contact points (crowding) • Overbites

  25. Crowding Only applies to crowding between permanent teeth Measure between the contact points of the two most crowded teeth

  26. First line (white) – 4mm Crowding Reverse overjets Open bites

  27. ‘MOCDO’ Missing teeth Overjets Crossbites Displacement of contact points Overbites

  28. Overbite Deep overbite Open bite

  29. Deep Overbite Deep overbite causing gingival or palatal traumatic injury = Definite Need for Treatment

  30. Other Points of the Modified IOTN Generalised spacing is not recorded in the Dental Health Component
