To determine whether the problems of patients are realistic, an orthodontist visited all patients and recorded the findings on a structured questionnaire. In addition some variables that might influence the score that patients recorded to evaluate their own dental esthetic were analyzed. To analyze the data, Chi-square, t test, ANOVA, Kappa statistic and multi-variable linear regression model were used.Results: Totally ۲۵۲ individuals (۹۲ males and ۱۶۰ females) were evaluated.
