“…However, this was not in accordance with other authors who either found it to be nonsignificant or not related. 13,23,25,26 This contradiction can be related to various methodologies used for measurement of either ICoW or intercanine distance. Width/Length (W/L) ratios of the anterior teeth are related to the anterior esthetics.…”

Introduction: Several techniques and methods have been proposed to estimate the anterior teeth dimensions in edentulous patients. However, this procedure remains challenging especially when preextraction records are not available. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate some of the existing extraoral and intraoral methods for estimation of anterior tooth dimensions and to propose a novel method for estimation of central incisor width (CIW) and length (CIL) for Saudi population. Materials and methods:Extraoral and intraoral measurements were recorded for a total of 236 subjects. Descriptive statistical analysis and Pearson's correlation tests were performed. Association was evaluated between combined anterior teeth width (CATW) and interalar width (IAW), intercommisural width (ICoW) and interhamular notch distance (IHND) plus 10 mm. Evaluation of the linear relationship between central incisor length (CIL) with facial height (FH) and CIW with bizygomatic width (BZW) was also performed.Results: Significant correlation was found between the CATW and ICoW and IAW (p-values <0.0001); however, no correlation was found relative to IHND plus 10 mm (p-value = 0.456). Clinical significance: Based on the results of the study, ICoW and IAW measurements can be useful in estimating the initial reference value for CATW, while the proposed novel approach using specific palatal dimensions can be used for estimating the width and length of central incisors. These methods are crucial to obtain esthetic treatment results within the parameters of the given population.

Aim: this study was conducted to determine the distance between the mesio-incisal angles of maxillary central incisors along the midline to a line running between the tips of the maxillary canines (IC line) in Arab population with different arch forms. Materials & Methods:226 stone casts for selected dentate Saudi students were categorized, according to their morphological description, into three groups (ovoid, tapering, and square) arch forms. Using a digital caliper, the distances between the mesio-incisal angles of the maxillary central incisors along the midline to the IC line (AB distance) and to the midpoint between fovea palatine (AC distance) were measured. The data were collected and statistically analyzed. Results:One way analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that the mean of AB distance was affected significantly by change of the arch form and also for the AB: AC ratio where p< 0.001. Conclusion:The fundamental results of this study can serve as a guide for determining the mesio-distal width of the maxillary anterior teeth in different arch forms.

This survey is undertaken to: (1) assess the perceptions of prosthodontist towards the concept of natural dentition archival (NDA); and (2) to obtain any further suggestions/recommendations regarding it. 616 prosthodontist across India participated in the study. Data was collected using a self- designed, self-administered, pilot tested, structured 10 item questionnaire. Results indicate that 32.1 % prosthodontists make use of pre-extraction records; 54.4 % seemed to give consideration to natural findings of the patient while denture fabrication; 86.7 % recommended patient aged 25-34 years to archive his/her natural dentition to serve as pre-extraction record; 92.2 % were willing to promote the NDA concept for their patients and 33.7 % thought that it is an extra burden. It was noted that postgraduate students (61.5 %) significantly gave more consideration to natural findings of the patient as compared to practicing prosthodontist and faculty (p < 0.001). Using, pre-extraction records was preferred by the prosthodontists from urban and periurban area as compared to those from rural area (p < 0.05). 67.8 % prosthodontists' viewed NDA as ideal for denture construction which will result in greater patient satisfaction. However, 46 % prosthodontists have raised concerns like: storage and preservation of cast and records being tedious, extra time needed and patient motivation an added burden. 54 % recommended that NDA concept can be introduced and emphasized in the prosthodontic curriculum, so that the dental students learn and promote it to their future patients. Overall, the perception towards NDA is favourable and the prosthodontist needs to be motivated to utilize this concept.
