Background: The forensic anthropologists have been vastly studied the dimorphism in teeth, hair, pelvis, skull and in bone sizes. Objectives: To investigate the gender dimorphic potential of cephalometric parameters. Materials and Methods: Thirteen angular and twenty-one linear lateral cephalometric measurements were analyzed on randomly selected manual tracings of sixty-nine male and sixty-nine female cephalograms between the ages twenty to fifty years.
Background: In orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning assessment of an individual's facial skeletal pattern in vertical, sagittal and transverse direction is prevalent. Dental compensation is the reverse of skeletal disharmony. Objectives: This study has correlated the position of mandibular incisors inclination with different facial types and with the mandibular symphyseal morphology. Materials and Methods:The sample consisted of 100 Pakistani patients of two different age groups i.e. adolescents up to 12 years and audlts up to 22 years on which R-angle, Li-MP, B-MP, Li-MP, symphyseal width (W) and depth (D) were measured. Results: No correlation was found between Li-MP and R-angle, B-MP, Li-MP, and W except with the D i.e. symphyseal depth. Conclusions: No significant association observed between lower incisor inclination, different facial types, and symphyseal morphology except with the depth of the symphysis. Slight correlation of differential jaw growth and dental changes with age are coincidental events with no relationship.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
