Al-Huwaizi: [email protected]). 2Department of Orthodontics, College of Dentistry, University of Sulaimaniya, Sulaimaniya, Iraq. Received: 22/03/07; accepted: 07/08/07 ABSTRACT This oral health survey aimed to determine the orthodontic treatment needs of teenagers in Sulaimaniya, Iraq. A clinical examination was made of a random sample of 998 Kurdish schoolchildren aged 13 years. Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI) scores ranged from 13 to 65, with a mean of 25.4 (SD 9.2). From these scores, treatment needs were assessed as: no or slight need 58.6%, elective 18.5%, highly desirable 12.5% and mandatory (handicapping malocclusion) 10.3%. Highly desirable or mandatory treatment need (DAI ≥ 31) was found in equal proportions of males (23.2%) and females (22.6%), but in more rural (25.1%) than urban (20.6%) residents. بسنم مادختساب داركلأا ينيقارعلا ينقهارلما ىدل نانسلأل ةيميوقتلا ةلجاعملل تاجايتحلاا مييقت ينسلا ليمجتلا ديشر ليع ةرات ،يزيولحا لصيف مركأ نانسلأل ةيميوقتلا ةلجاعملل تاجايتحلاا لىع فرعتلا مفلا ةحص لوانت يذلا حسلما اذه فده :ةـصلالخا 998 مضت ةيئاوشع ةنيعل اًيريسر اًصحف نوثحابلا ىرجأ دقو .قارعلا في ،ةينمايلسلا في ينقهارلما ىدل )سايق تاجرد( زارحأ نأ اودجو دقو ؛رمعلا نم اًماع 13 نوغلبي نيذلا ،ةيدركلا سرادلما لافطأ نم .)9.2 هرادقم يرايعم فارحناب( 25.4 اله يطسولا غلبيو 65و 13 ينب حواترت ينسلا ليمجتلا بسنم وأ تاجايتحا دجوت لا :لياتلا هجولا لىع ةلجاعملل تاجايتحلاا نوثحابلا مَّ يق زارحلأا هذه نم اًقلاطناو ةيرابجإ تاجايتحا ،%12.5 ةدشب ةبوغرم تاجايتحا ،%18.5 ةيئاقتنا تاجايتحا ،%58.6 ةفيفط تاجايتحا وأ ةدشب ةبوغرلما تالجاعملل تاجايتحلاا نوثحابلا دجو دقو .%10.3 )ةقاعلإل ببسلما قابطلإا ءوس( )%23.2( روكذلا ىدل ةيواستم ةيوئم بسن في )31 لىع ديزي وأ يواسي ينسلا ليمجتلا بسنم( ةيرابجلإا .)%20.6( ندلما ناكس ىدل اهنم رثكأ )%25.1( فايرلأا ناكس ىدل اهنكلو ،)%22.6( ثانلإاو
