Statement of Problem: One of the most important procedures in the rehabilitation of an edentulous space in the anterior segment is the selection of an appropriate size of the anterior teeth in order to achieve the perfect esthetic results. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between horizontal measurements of the face and width of the maxillary anterior teeth. Material and methods: In this descriptive-analytical and cross-sectional study, the face and teeth of the 77 subjects (39 women and 38 men aged between 20-30) with no facial and dental deformities were examined. Some horizontal dimensions of the face including IC (intercanthal), IP (interpupillary), BZW (bizygomatic width), IA (interalar), and ICm (Intercomussural) width and perceived width of the teeth were calculated with AutoCAD software with 0.1 mm accuracy on the photos. The actual width of the teeth was calculated with a digital caliper by 0.1 mm accuracy on the maxillary casts. The data were analyzed in SPSS software using the Pearson correlation coefficient and t-test. Results: Except for the IC and the sum of the actual width of the six maxillary anterior teeth on the cast, the rest of the measurements were significantly different by gender ( p < 0.05). All the correlations between facial measurements and width of the teeth were bigger than when they were separated by gender. In women, the correlation between IC and the six anterior teeth in the front view (SANTF) was the highest one ( r = 0.436, p = 0.005). However, the highest correlation was related to the ICm and SANTF in men. (r = 0.0501, p =0.001) Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, the results suggest that except for the BZW, the rest of the facial measurements including IC, IP, IA and ICm can be used as a preliminary criterion for determining the width of the maxillary anterior teeth of the edentulous patients. | ||
