Comparison of dentoalveolar protrusion values in Moroccans and other populations

Abstract: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate bimaxillary protrusion among Moroccans and to compare the Moroccan population with other Arabic, Caucasian, and Mediterranean populations. Cephalometric radiographs of 102 Moroccan adult university students (73 females and 29 males, mean age: 21 years 6 months +/- 1 year 6 months) with a normal occlusion were traced. Fifteen measurements concerning the upper and lower incisors, upper and lower lips, and the Frankfort to mandibular plane angle were assessed. S… Show more

“…However, the nose and chin positions were not evaluated separately, and those with a more developed nose and chin can provide a good aesthetic appearance due to their greater labial protrusion 21 . Lahlou et al 22 also found more retruded upper and lower lips (E-LS=-1.23mm and E-LI=-0.05mm) after evaluating 102 Moroccan adults with normal occlusion and mean age of 21 years and 6 months.…”

“…In males, the mean value was 23.93 (SD ± 3.47), and in females, 22.67 (SD ± 3.48), with no statistically significant difference between the groups as a result of the Mann-Whitney test (p-value = 0.2998).…”

“…Cephalometric norms have been used to determine the location and severity of any existing dentofacial discrepancies and subsequently to evaluate the changes that accompany orthodontic treatment (Lahlou et al, 2010). Differences in the dentofacial relationships of various ethnic populations have been reported by many investigators, and as a result, a number of standards have been developed regarding various populations (Bingmer et al, 2010;Chan, 1972;Cooke and Wei, 1988;Franchi et al, 1998;Shalhoub et al, 1987).…”

“…To laypeople, anterior tooth crowding or a protrusive profile is the most conspicuous characteristic related to malocclusion (Jung, 2010). Although the protrusive profiles can be caused by a variety of skeleton-dental relationships, dentoalveolar protrusion is one of them and is common dentofacial deformity in many ethnic groups around the world (Lahlou et al, 2010;Upadhyay et al, 2008). Bialveolar protrusion is characterized by dentoalveolar flaring of both maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth with resultant protrusion of the lips and convexity of the face.…”

“…Racial differences in dentofacial and soft tissue morphology, as proved by multiple studies, might also be a contributing factor in age-related changes of incisors' inclination. [56182021222324]…”
