The role of anthropometric measurements in the design of complete dentures

The Relationships of the Maxillary Central Incisors and Canines to the Incisive Papilla in Jordanians

“…This indicates the study sample of Jordanians does conform to the recommended norms and guidelines that use the incisive papilla as a reference for the setting of artificial teeth in denture construction recommended for Caucasians can be applied to Jordanians. These results were in agreement with the findings of previous studies which reported compatible values for the two reference distances as follows: 8.50 mm, 22 10.2 mm, 17 9.17 mm, 15 12.31 mm, 16 12.45 mm, 10 and 13.17 mm.…”

“…It is believed this was due to malocclusion at the canine area. 9 These findings were comparable to the results of many previous studies which reported intersection between intercanine line and center of the papilla in 57%, 15 57.6%, 16 and 64% 22 of the studied cases. Another study, 23 which reported the results of 71 examined dentate casts, concluded a coronal border of the papilla was considered a reference, the mean distance between this point and the central incisors was 12.93 mm.…”

Dental arch asymmetry

“…In the present study, the maxillary right canine-molar distance was greater than left maxillary canine-molar distance by 0.30 mm in male, but these differences are statistically not significant and clinically neglected, Sawiris[26] measured the buccal segment from canine cusp tip to the distobuccal cusp tip of second molar of 50 British subjects with class I occlusion and reported that the right side was larger by 0.24 mm.…”

A comparative study between three ethnic groups to derive some standards for maxillary arch dimensions

“…Measurements of maxillary arch dimensions for different ethnic groups has been reported by several authors (Sawiris, 1977;Mack, 1981;Younes, 1984;Gridly, 1985;Sarhan & Diwan 1987). The results of such studies were shown to be of great value to chnicians in the different fields of dentistry, e.g.…”
