Aims and Objectives:Dermatoglyphics is the study of fingerprints. Fingerprints are unique for an individual person. This aim of this study was to note if any correlation exists between dermatoglyphics and growth patterns.Materials and Methods:Lateral cephalograms of 100 patients were recorded and traced. Mandibular plane angle was measured according to Steiner's analysis to determine the type of growth pattern and thus separated into two groups (50 in each group): Group I being horizontal growth pattern (HGP) and Group II being vertical growth pattern (VGP). All statistical analysis was performed with SPSS version 21.Results:The ulnar loops in Group II were highest in frequency, and central pocket loops were lowest in frequency in both groups.Conclusion:Ulnar loops were increased in VGP whereas whorls were increased in HGP. There was absence of central pocket loops in VGP.

Introduction: For the study's purposes, the researchers are looking to examine if there is a correlation between the skeletal base connection and lip and dermal prints, as well as whether there is a significant variation between genders. Materials and Procedures: Participants in the study numbered 120: Based on Reidel's Malocclusion categorization, There were 40 each of Class I, Class II, and Class III samples. The cellophane technique was used to obtain lip, finger, and palm prints from each of the 120 participants, and the data was analysed using SPSS 22.0. Intergroup comparisons were made using the Chi square test. Atd angle and a-b ridge count were both shown to be statistically significant via the use of an ANOVA test. Class III skeletal malocclusion individuals have a vertical lip pattern, as opposed to the branching lip pattern seen in Class I and II. All three research populations, including the South Indian population, have a right loop pattern. Class I individuals exhibited a greater number of a-b ridges and a greater atd angle. The majority of males and females had branching lip patterns. Conclusion: Dermatoglyphics and cheiloscopy can be used to investigate the genetic correlations of malocclusion and to prevent malocclusion at an early stage. They are simple, affordable, and noninvasive. However, they are not totally dependable because to other ethnic and environmental factors.

“…The stability and hereditary inclination exhibited by palatal rugae led to the suggestion that various occlusal characteristics that display a strong genetic basis may display an association with palatal rugae. 7 Development of the dermal ridges occurs by the sixth week of gestation and their maximum size is reached between the 12th and 13th weeks. The development of teeth commences during the sixth week of intrauterine life.…”

“…Any abnormality in the genome may reflect in these dermal ridge derivatives and in turn may aid as a diagnostic adjunct for malocclusions very early in life and help in preventive or interceptive measures to alleviate imminent dentoskeletal aberrations which have been one of the main goals of orthodontic treatment for many years. 7, 29 The study aims to assess and correlate the pattern of fingerprints, lip prints, and palatal rugae in individuals with malocclusions related to skeletal discrepancy.…”

Background and Objectives A probable association between dermatoglyphics and malocclusions related to skeletal discrepancy may exist as dermal ridges, and craniofacial structures develop from the same embryonic tissues during the same embryonic period. The study aims to assess and correlate the pattern of fingerprints, lip prints, and palatal rugae in individuals with malocclusions related to skeletal discrepancy. Materials and Methods The 180 samples collected in the study were divided into 3 groups based on cephalometric analysis into class I, II, and III malocclusion. The fingerprints, lip prints, and palatal rugae patterns were obtained for each participant and pattern analysis was done. Results Class I malocclusion with no skeletal discrepancy showed a statistically significant difference in the loop fingerprint patterns on all fingers except the first finger on the right and left hand, branched lip pattern, and straight palatal rugae pattern in primary rugae 1 and 4. Class II malocclusion related to skeletal discrepancy showed a statistically significant difference in the loop pattern on all fingers except in the fourth finger of the right hand which showed a whorl pattern, branched lip pattern, and straight palatal rugae pattern in primary rugae 1, 4, and 5. Class III malocclusion related to skeletal discrepancy showed a statistically significant difference in the loop pattern on all fingers except in the fourth finger of the right hand which showed an absence of arch pattern, vertical lip print pattern, and straight palatal rugae pattern in primary rugae 1. Conclusion Dermatoglyphics analysis can be used to indicate developing malocclusions related to skeletal discrepancies. at an early age, thereby aiding the development of treatment aiming to establish favorable occlusion. Prospective and various ethnic and racial-based studies would be valuable for the establishment of dermatoglyphic markers of malocclusion.
