Objective This research aims to study the difference between the expected value of orthodontic patients and parents, as well as that of urban/rural population. Methods The patients and parents were randomly selected to answer an ＂orthodontic patient expected value questionnaire＂. ResuRs The expected value of juvenile patients differed from that of the parents as follows： having impressions, teeth extraction, and duration of orthodontic treatment. The expected values of rural and urban children differed in having X-rays, duration of treatment, and other factors. The expected value of rural and urban parents also differed, such as whether orthodontic treatments will result to later problems. Conclusion The expected value of orthodontic patients and their parents differed in both rural and urban populations.
