“…Dental casts have been used by many authors to measure the tooth dimension and distances of the landmarks in many studies and many of them have used alginate as an impression material. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] The standardization of cast was necessary as linear measurement between two points or objects in a space would be difficult when the objects are not arranged on the same plane. In the past, studies have been done by using various methods like vernier caliper with two limbs that are adjustable with shorter and longer limbs contacting the objects at two different planes to measure the linear distance; 16 some used the contourmeter to orient the plane 21 with measuring dial guage, while Grave and Beker used Ney surveyor and vernier caliper for the same.…”

“…The posterior point was also used by other authors. 8,13,14,16,21 However, measurements have also been done from the middle point of the papilla 6,7,[9][10][11][12]14,20,30 and some had done from both points. 14,26 In the present study, the mean distance between the labial surface of the maxillary incisors and the posterior border of the papilla was found to be 11.59 mm (SD 1.3 When comparing the result with Caucasians, a difference of about 1.6 mm is seen in this population.…”

Aim:The study was carried to find a relationship between the postextraction stable landmark, the incisive papilla, and the most labial position of the maxillary central incisor teeth, which occurred in Nepalese population. Materials and methods:Casts of the subjects selected by nonprobability random sampling meeting the inclusion criteria were obtained. Each casts were standardized with respect to the occlusal plane and a photographic technique was used to measure the distance from the tangent of the labial surface of the central incisors to the posterior border of the incisive papilla. The measurements were made using Adobe Photoshop and results were analyzed by using appropriate statistical methods. Most appropriate software (SPSS) for the purpose was used to generate all desired values. Results:The data obtained suggested that the distance from the labial surface of maxillary central incisors to the posterior border of the incisive papilla ranged from 9 to 15.9 mm with a mean of 11.59 mm (SD 1.3). Various other results were also found after evaluation of the arch forms in relation to sex and race. Conclusion:Within the limitations of the study, these results suggested that there is a relationship between the maxillary central incisors and the incisive papilla aiding in the anteroposterior positioning of the anterior tooth.The clinical relevance of the study lies in application of the incisive papilla as a starting point in the preliminary location of

“…The most obvious landmark, however, is the incisive papilla 8 appears to have survived intact from the dentate state and received a great deal of attention 9 . The studies suggested various points for measurement from the incisal edge of the maxillary central incisors to the incisive papilla: one group of scholars have adopted the center of the papilla as a reference point for measurement [10][11][12][13] , while other authors have preferred to end at the posterior border of papilla. The differences between scholars were not confined only to the determination of the point of reference but extended to the measurements as well.…”

“…The differences between scholars were not confined only to the determination of the point of reference but extended to the measurements as well. Adopting the center of the papilla as the reference point of the measurements, Harper 10 suggested 5-8 mm; McGee 11 preferred 7.7 mm; while Hickey et al 12 and Martone 13 suggested 8-10 mm. On the other hand, taking the posterior border of papilla as the point of reference, Erlich and Gazit reported an average of 12-13 mm 14 , while Solomon and Arunachalam reported 11.9mm 15 .…”

Aim: this study was conducted to determine the distance between the mesio-incisal angles of maxillary central incisors along the midline to a line running between the tips of the maxillary canines (IC line) in Arab population with different arch forms. Materials & Methods:226 stone casts for selected dentate Saudi students were categorized, according to their morphological description, into three groups (ovoid, tapering, and square) arch forms. Using a digital caliper, the distances between the mesio-incisal angles of the maxillary central incisors along the midline to the IC line (AB distance) and to the midpoint between fovea palatine (AC distance) were measured. The data were collected and statistically analyzed. Results:One way analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that the mean of AB distance was affected significantly by change of the arch form and also for the AB: AC ratio where p< 0.001. Conclusion:The fundamental results of this study can serve as a guide for determining the mesio-distal width of the maxillary anterior teeth in different arch forms.

“…Harper (1948) stated that the incisal edges of the upper central incisors should be set 5–8 mm in front of the centre of the papilla. Hickey, Boucher & Woelfel (1962), Martone (1963), Murray (1977) and Mavroskoufis & Ritchie (1981) preferred 8–10 mm for this measurement, whereas Schiffman (1964) related the canines to a line bisecting the papilla. Erlich & Gazit (1975) found that the labial surfaces of the central incisors were an average of 12–13 mm anterior to the midpoint of the papilla.…”

A clinical study was designed to investigate the relationship between intercondylar width (ICW) and inter-dental widths of the upper and lower canines and first molars to aid in denture teeth positioning. The study was divided into two parts so that the results of the first part could be verified in the second part. In the first part, 27 adult subjects were selected according to the exclusion criteria of the study. A kinematic hinge axis locator was used to locate the true point of condylar rotation. The distance between these points was considered to be the ICW. A strong correlation was found between ICW and interdental measurements, with ICW and upper first molars being the strongest (r=0.612, P= 0.004). A set of indices developed from the results was recommended for the positioning of complete denture teeth. In the second part of the study, inter-dental measurements were estimated using the indices obtained in the first part. The estimated inter-dental widths showed no significant differences compared with the real widths (P= 0.109, P=0.849, P=0.353, P=0.41). Based on the results of this study, ICW measurements can be used for setting up canines and first molars in complete dentures.
