The present study assess some cephalometric measurements of the soft tissue profile in order to observe the behavior of facial convexity in patients with Class I, Class II division 1, and Class III malocclusions. METHODOLOGY: 102 Pre-treatment cephalometric radiographs of patients attending orthodontic OPD. Ages 16-45 years (mean age of 17.6 years) were selected for this study. They were divided into 3 groups, Class I, class II and class III, using ANB value of (Steiners analysis). Soft tissue cephalometric values of angle of convexity, H.SN angle, nasolabial angle, mentolabial angle and linear measurements of upper and lower lip to S line was measured by a single observer. Inter group and inter gender comparison of all the variable were done. RESULTS: The result showed significant differences amongst the three groups in mentolabial angle , H.SN angle, upper lip to S line and lower lip to S lines.
Aim: To determine the correlation between lip print, fingerprint form and blood groups that can be used for the identification of an individual among gender. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 719 female and male participants with ages between 17-34 years from Bahria University Medical and Dental College. Patterns for lip and finger prints were collected along with the blood groups. SPSS v23 was used for statistical analysis. Frequency and percentages of the qualitative variables was calculated. The association of the variables was analyzed using Chi-square. Results: A total of 719 subjects, there were 327 males (45.5%) and 392 females (54.5%). Type I lip pattern was prevalent in 31.8% males followed by Type I’ in 27.6% females. The loop type of the finger print was observed in 165(50.5%) of males and 162(41.3%) females. The most common type of blood group was A+ in 27.2% in males while in females it was O+ in 29.8%. Conclusion: Individual parameters such as lip and finger prints along with blood groups can play an important role in personal identification of individual. In our study A+ blood group along with arch pattern of finger prints and Type I lip were most common patterns in males while in females Type I’lip pattern along with blood group 0+ and Loop pattern were common Keywords: Lip prints, Finger Prints, Cheiloscopy, Blood Groups, Forensic
