“…The majority of our conclusions come in accordance to those of Koyoumdjisky-Kaye et al (19) who compared teeth and dental arch dimensions between Jewish population of Kurdish and Yemenites descent. They measured the dental casts of 99 Kurdish and 98 Yemenite Jewish children, aged 12 years, for mesio-distal tooth dimensions, and arch depth and width.…”

Aims: To search for any differences in tooth size and dental arch dimensions between Iraqi Arabs and Kurds. Materials and Methods: Upper and lower dental casts of 40 Kurdish and 40 Arabic subjects ranging in age between 14-18 years and equally divided between males and females, were measured for mesiodistal tooth size as well as for dental arch width, length and perimeter. Results: Kurdish males and females showed larger values for mesiodistal tooth size and dental arch width, perimeter and length than their Arabic counterpart. The majority of differences were significant. Males in both Arabic and Kurdish population had greater tooth and dental arch size than females. Conclusions: Data of tooth size and dental arch dimensions for Iraqi Arabs is not applied to Iraqi Kurdish subjects.

“…Previous studies have reported significant differences in head form and arch form between various ethnic groups [ 22 – 24 , 36 – 38 ]. Thus, careful selection of preformed archwires that match the patient’s original arch form and ethnicity is essential for a stable result.…”

Is arch form influenced by sagittal molar relationship or Bolton tooth-size discrepancy?

BackgroundOrthodontic patients show high prevalence of tooth-size discrepancy. This study investigates the possible association between arch form, clinically significant tooth-size discrepancy, and sagittal molar relationship.MethodsPretreatment orthodontic casts of 230 Saudi patients were classified into one of three arch form types (tapered, ovoid, and square) using digitally scanned images of the mandibular arches. Bolton ratio was calculated, sagittal molar relationship was defined according to Angle classification, and correlations were analyzed using ANOVA, chi-square, and t-tests.ResultsNo single arch form was significantly more common than the others. Furthermore, no association was observed between the presence of significant Bolton discrepancy and the sagittal molar relationship or arch form. Overall Bolton discrepancy is significantly more prevalent in males.ConclusionsArch form in a Saudi patient group is independent of gender, sagittal molar relationship, and Bolton discrepancy.

“…It has also been demonstrated that the dental arch shape varies among living human populations: the people in the Near East (Koyoumdjisky-Kaye et al 1976), Japanese and Americans (Aoki et al 1971), Indians (Sasajima et al 1981), and the people in East Asia (Lee, 1977). In the Pacific region, the dental arch size and shape have been investigated for the people of Australia, Fiji, Samoa, Kiribati, and Japan (Fukuzawa, 1998).…”

Dental arch sizes and shapes of Papua New Guinea (PNG) Highlanders (Wabag, Enga Province, 26 males and 26 females) were measured using photo graphsof dental casts and compared with those of five populations in the Pacific region (Fiji, Samoa, Kiribati, Australia, Japan). The dental arch breadths of the Wabag males and females were the largest among the six groups. The Wabag males had the shortest lengths and the Wabag females were in the middle range among the six groups. As a result, the dental arches of the Wabag people proved to be short and broad. Principal component analyses based on arch measurements showed that the Wabag people were close to Fijians suggesting that these two Melanesian popula tionshad similar dental arch forms.
