Evaluation of the Relationship between Curve of Spee, WALA-FA Distance and Curve of Wilson in Normal Occlusion

Abstract: Objective: To test the hypotheses that (i) there is a significant correlation between the curve of Spee (COS), basal arch (WALA ridge) to dental arch distance (WALA-FA distance) and curve of Wilson (CW) and that (ii) the deepening of the COS is affected by the CW and the WALA-FA distance.Methods: Mandibular models of 50 patients aged between 20 and 35 years were scanned with TRIOS. The xyz coordinate system was determined, and a reference occlusal plane was generated. The depth of the COS, the CW, and WALA-FA … Show more

“…The curve of Spee provides posterior disocclusion and anterior tooth guidance with mandibular forward movement. [ 7 ] The depth of the Curve of Spee 8 increased with the eruption of second molars and slightly decreased during adolescence and remained stable in adulthood. The Curve of Spee and WALA-FA point is subjected to occlusal variations.…”
