“…Other published data, indicate that the lowest dimension for intercanine width has been found in Turks during early mixed dentition, class I (31.59 mm) and in young permanent dentition population (32.52 mm) (Arslan et al, 2007). The intercanine width for Colombian mestizo population, 5 to 17 year old presenting normal occlusion normal was 33 mm (Alvaran et al, 2009). For Amazon Indians in early mixed dentition the intercanine width is 34.6 mmand 36.2 mm in late mixed dentition (Rivera et al, 2008).…”

SUMMARY:The purpose of this study was to compare dental arch transversal and anteroposterior dimensions in three ethnic groups from Colombia. A digital caliper was used to take 16 transversal and two sagittal measurements, 9 for the upper jaw and 9 for the lower jaw. The sagittal measure determining arch length was drawn from a mesial line traced from first right permanent molar to first left permanent molar, and a perpendicular line from the point of contact between central incisive teeth, both for the upper and lower jaw. The dimensions of upper dental arch in the three ethnic groups showed differences in intercanine distance, as well as between premolar and between molar teeth. The same differences were found for lower dental arches. The populations evaluated show distinctive characteristics in dental arch dimensions, thus the mestizo population had narrow arches while the natives had wide arches.

“…Por ejemplo, el ancho intercanino maxilar disminuye (entre 3,4 mm y 1,7 mm) alrededor de los 25 y 45 años de edad tanto en hombres como en mujeres. Por otro lado, los hombres tienen el arco más amplio que las mujeres, especialmente en la zona posterior [4,23,24]. Desde el comienzo de la dentición mixta, hasta que se completa la permanente, la sobremordida aumenta ligeramente y luego disminuye, pero hay una gran variabilidad individual [15].…”

Odontol. 2013 diciembre; 9 (edición especial): 25-35.Resumen. El ser humano posee dos denticiones, las cuales necesitan de al menos quince años para su consolidación. Durante este proceso la información genética que dictamina la forma y el crecimiento se expresa, y la oclusión se consolida, pero además presenta influencias medioambientales que pueden generar cambios en la forma y la función del individuo. El apiñamiento dental es una de las maloclusiones con mayor prevalencia y el enfoque del tratamiento dependerá de las características faciales, esqueléticas y oclusales de cada paciente. Este artículo aborda el procedimiento de guía de erupción como tratamiento interceptivo del apiñamiento con base en los conceptos de crecimiento y desarrollo, y desarrollo de oclusión. Se contempla la importancia de desarrollar métodos preventivos basados en el adecuado conocimiento del crecimiento normal, del desarrollo de la dentición y del conocimiento de los factores que lo modifican. Se quiere resaltar la importancia de la extracción seriada para anticipar alteraciones de espacio que se producirán, a menos que los dientes sean eliminados con intervalos estratégicos para aliviar la severidad de la maloclusión.Palabras clave: desarrollo dental, extracción seriada, oclusión. Guide to Eruption and Serial Extraction: a View Based on Occlusion DevelopmentAbstract. Human beings have two dentitions, which require at least fifteen years for consolidation. During this process, the genetic information that determines shape and growth are expressed and the occlusion consolidates; however, during this period, environmental factors can generate changes in the form and function of the individual. Crowding is one of the most prevalent malocclusions and the treatment approach depends on the facial, skeletal and occlusal features of each patient. This article discusses the eruption guide procedure as an interceptive treatment for crowding based on the concepts of growth and occlusion development. It addresses the importance of developing preventive methods based on adequate knowledge of normal growth, dentition development and the factors that modify it. This review highlights the importance of serial extraction to anticipate space changes that will occur unless the teeth are removed with strategic intervals to relieve the severity of malocclusion.

“…These images were subjected to several comparisons between different expert professionals, which classified them into three basic shapes (quadrangular, triangular and oval), as suggested by several authors. [4][5][6]21 In relation to the sex, studies have affirmed that men have dental arch 16,22 and teeth larger than women. 16 Souza et al 6 (1997), evaluating a population of women between 20 and 25 years old, have observed the triangular shape of the upper central incisor as the most common (45.9%), followed by quadrangular (40.5) and oval (13.6).…”

Aim: The purpose of this study was to verify the association between the facial type and the morphology of the upper central incisor, to potentially provide a guide for artificial tooth selection in esthetic and prosthetic rehabilitation. Materials and methods:The sample consisted of 51 lateral teleradiographs (lateral cephalometric radiographs) and cast models of subjects with a naturally optimal occlusion and at least four of the six keys of Andrews, for optimal occlusion. The facial type was defined by two cephalometric measurements (SN.Gn and SN.GoGn) and classified into dolichofacial, mesofacial and brachyfacial after digitizing the radiographs. The incisor morphology was classified into quadrangular, oval and triangular after 3D digitizing the models and evaluation of the images by 12 dentists. The evaluation between the examiners was performed by Kappa test. In order to test the differences between the variables, it was used a chi-square test (5%). Results:No significant difference (p < 0.05) was found between the studied variables. Conclusion:Facial type was not associated with the morphology of the upper central incisor, considering the methodology and population included in the present study.Clinical significance: Using the facial type as a way to select the morphology of the upper central incisor proved to be inadequate in this study.
