“…This is proportional to study that is conducted by Hussain et al 23 which stated intercommissural width toward intercanine width was not significant and weakin negative direction. The research conducted by Deogade et al 24 suggested that substantial relationship between intercommissural width against mesiodistal width of the maxillary anteriorteeth are not significant and weak in negative direction is also comparable to this study.…”

Various types of anatomical landmarks of the face should match its proportions with the size of the teeth which is the interalar width, intercomissural width, interpupillary width, Intercanthal width, and byzigomatic width. Some of face landmarks can be used as a guide in the selection of anterior teeth in complete denture, especially if the pre extraction record such as radiography image, extracted teeth, model study, the remaining teeth, face shape, and the shape of the curved jaw have been lost. The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation between interalar width and intercommisural width against mesiodistal incisivus centralis width in a group of Buginese tribe. Ninety nine Buginese tribe subjects aged 17-25 were selected. The interalar width, intercommisural width, and mesiodistal incisor centralis teeth were measured using caliper about three times for accuracy and precision. Mean of interalar width and mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width in males more width than females (p<0.05), and intercommisural width in females more width than males (p>0.05). The degree of correlation between interalar width against mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width was 0.030, -0.246, 0,225 in Buginese tribe, males, and females (p>0.05). : The degree of correlation between intercommisural width against mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width in Buginese tribe was 0,054, 0,013, 0,153 in Buginese tribe, males, and females (p>0.05). The degree of correlation between interalar width and intercommisural width was 0.301 and 0.356 in Buginese tribe and males (p<0.05), and 0,281 in females (p>0.05). In conclusion, there is no significant correlation between interalar width and intercommisural width against mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla width in a group of Buginese tribe. Interalar width and intercommisural width directly proportional to mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla in a group of Buginese tribe. Interalar width and intercommisural width inversely proportional to mesiodistal incisor centralis maxilla in males and directly inversely in females.

“…Most studies[192021] have suggested that skull anthropometry can be a primary starting point in selecting the mesiodistal width of the maxillary anterior teeth. [1314] Most studies[151617] done in this area also have been carried out to study the stature[22232425] and personality assessments based on anthropometric values. However, these do not include Asia and India even though they form largest population as compared to other ethnic groups; no measurements of tooth sizes have been made on the Central Indian population.…”

“…After recording the demographic information such as age and sex of each participant, various craniometric and odontometric measurements were obtained with the help of a nonstretchable measuring tape, a spreading caliper, and a sliding digital stainless steel Vernier caliper, as suggested in the previous studies.

“…Later, all measurements were added to derive combined mesiodistal widths of all maxillary anteriors. [14] All the recorded measurements were calibrated in millimeters. Statistical comparisons were made between the recorded craniometric and odontometric measurements with respect to males and females.…”

“…Kern[12] found that most of the measurements of nasal width are equal to or within 0.5 mm of the measurements of the four maxillary anterior teeth. Inner canthal distance as a guide has been discussed in various studies,[13141516] and Abdullah,[17] in 2002, proposed a formula to calculate the width of the central incisor from the inner canthal distance as final central incisor width = inner canthal distance/2 × 0.618. Skull anthropometry can also be a primary starting point in selecting the mesiodistal width of the maxillary anterior teeth.…”

Within the limitations of this study, the results suggest that head circumference divided by 10 can be used to select a teeth set with the resulting value as the combined mesiodistal width of six anterior teeth. This can be used as a starting point for determining the width of the anterior maxillary teeth for edentulous patients, which can be further confirmed with the esthetic appearance and with other facial measurements.

Aim This study was conducted for the selection of artificial teeth for edentulous patients with the help of extraoral facial measurement. Materials and methods The intercanthal distance, interpupillary distance, interalar distance, intercommissural distance, and width of maxillary six anteriors from a total of 250 subjects were measured clinically. The measurements were made with the help of a digital caliper. Student's t-test was used to find the significance of parameters between male and female. Pearson correlation has been used to find the relation of the parameters. Results The total mean of 125 male subjects for intercanthal distance, interpupillary distance, interalar distance, intercommissural distance, and intercanine width was 31.58, 62.27, 34.77, 48.87, and 50.22 mm respectively. However, the total mean of 125 female subjects for intercanthal distance, interpupillary distance, interalar distance, intercommissural distance, intercanine width was 30.58, 61.48, 34.58, 48.20, and 49.34 mm respectively. The paired t-test showed highly significant results in relation to intercanthal distance and width of maxillary six anteriors. However, interalar distance was found to be nonsignificant and interpupillary and intercommissural distance was significant. Conclusion It can be concluded that although various methods for the selection of teeth are used, the applicability can vary due to the ethnic differences between populations. The multiplication factor for intercanthal distance, interpupillary distance, interalar distance, intercommissural distance was 1.6, 0.8, 1.4, and 1 in order to obtain the mesiodistal width of maxillary six anteriors respectively, in males and females. The values were greater for men than for women. No significant differences were found between sexes with respect to intercanthal distance. Clinical significance Although there are ethnic differences between populations, the proportions/relationships of anatomical landmarks to the teeth remain the same, which helps in the selection of artificial teeth for edentulous patients.
