Evaluation of Orthodontic Patients at State and Foundation Universities According to the ICON Index.

The number of patients who applied for treatment for the same period was three times higher in the state university than in the foundation university, whereas the rates of treatment needs were found to be similar between both state and foundation universities. At both universities, nearly one-third of patients were evaluated as "no treatment needed." The ICON index was found to be a reliable index in terms of reproducibility.
