“…Results of premolars in the present study were in agreement with Babu et al (2016) and Srinivasprasad et al (2017), who found that the first premolars dimensions had significant degree of sexual dimorphism. On the other hand Kailash et al (2018) found that there was statistical significant difference in BL and MD dimensions of the left first, right second and left second premolars between males and females.…”

“…Lateral incisor results of the current study were in agreement with Kailash et al (2018) who detected statistical significance differences in BL and MD dimensions of the left and right lateral incisors. In contrast, Babu et al (2016) and Srinivasprasad et al (2017) found that lateral incisor dimensions didn't show any statistical significant differences between males and females. 2013founded that there was statistical significant differences between males and females in MD and BL dimensions of canines, which correlates with the current study.…”

Determination of sex is one of the most important and vital steps in forensic medicine. Sexual dimorphism using odontometric analysis is found to vary in different populations making it necessary to attain values of a specific population which makes identification of person as easy as possible. The present study aims to establish sexual differentiation using dental parameters including dental linear dimensions and indices. Maxillary jaw casts from total of 100 subjects (50 males and 50 females) between ages 17 and 24 years were taken. Mesiodistal (MD) and Buccolingual (BL) dimensions of each tooth of from maxillary jaw cast excluding third molar were measured using precision calipers, dental indices were calculated. Data was collected and statistical analysis was done using SPSS software version 20. Bucccolingual dimension was proved to be a better parameter than MD for assessment of gender in case of left central incisor, canines and left first molar. Crown index of right central incisor, second premolars, and left first molars was the best index for sex prediction of most of the teeth.

“…In our study, maxillary first molar both right and left sides and maxillary right second molar showed significant value for both the BL and MD dimensions which is similar to the study conducted by Deo[ 3 ] and Babu et al . [ 24 ] in contrast with the study done by Lakhanpal et al . [ 22 ] where only MD dimension showed a significant difference, this may be due to less sample size (50 M and 50 F) in their study.…”

“…Statistical significance was observed in maxillary right and left central incisor, right second premolar, left first and second premolars, and left first and second molars which is in contrast to studies done by Babu et al . [ 24 ] and Srinivasprasad et al . [ 23 ]…”

Aims and Objectives:Determination of sex is one of the most important and crucial steps in forensic science. Sexual dimorphism using odontometric analysis is found to vary in different populations making it necessary to attain values of a specific population which helps the identification possible. This present study attempts to establish sexual dimorphism using odontometric analysis in Odisha population.Materials and Methods:A total of 200 subjects (100 male and 100 female) between ages 18 and 25 years were included in the study. Intraoral Mesiodistal (MD) and Buccolingual (BL) dimensions of 28 teeth (maxillary and mandibular) excluding third molar were taken using digital Vernier calipers. Data were charted and decrypted and statistical analysis was done using SPSS Software version 20.Results:Our study showed larger dimensions of tooth in males when compared to females (maxillary right and left central incisor, 1st and 2nd molar). Interestingly, reverse dimorphism was also observed in few teeth.Conclusion:The results of the present study showed that the linear (MD and BL) dimensions of teeth played a major role in the determination of gender in individuals. The variations or reverse dimorphism could be a result of geographic variations.

“…Usually pre-molar are about 7 mm wide, but average molars are about 10 mm wide (Fig. 8) [21]. Thus, special attention in positioning the curing light is encouraged when light curing proximal boxes in Class II restorations, as well as two light curing procedures in each end (mesial and distal) while using bulk fill composites in Class II restorations (…”

To make dentists aware on the importance of correctly used light cure resin composites. Method: Highlighting important facts about light curing: Use of high quality light curing unit, use of the resin composite specific appropriate radiant exposure to adequately cure a resin composite, and highlighting important facts that may alter the radiant exposure received clinically by a resin composite restoration. Results: Application of this knowledge should change the behavior of dentists when it comes to light curing. Conclusions: The facts described should help educational institutes and professors to reinforce proper light curing techniques and associate training sessions within educational courses in order to improve teaching and learning.
