Clinical management of tooth size discrepancies.
Esthetic anterior dental appearance depends on the alignment, occlusion, and exposure of anterior teeth.1–3 In order to establish adequate alignment and occlusion, the upper and lower incisors need to be proportional in size. Interarch tooth size discrepancy (ITSD) is defined as a disproportion in the mesiodistal dimensions of teeth of opposing dental arches. In the absence of a proportional ma...
متن کاملTooth size discrepancies in an orthodontic population.
OBJECTIVE To explore how many millimeters of tooth size discrepancy (TSD) are clinically significant, to determine what percentage of a representative orthodontic population has such a tooth size discrepancy, and to determine the ability of simple visual inspection to detect such a discrepancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample comprised 150 pretreatment study casts with fully erupted and comp...
متن کاملTooth size discrepancies among Jordanian schoolchildren.
The aims of this study were to determine the tooth size discrepancies (TSD) in a representative sample of Jordanian schoolchildren and to compare TSD between genders. Dental casts of 367 (174 males and 193 females; mean age 15.5 years) Jordanian schoolchildren were selected. Anterior and overall Bolton ratios were determined using a digital calliper. Differences between genders were analyzed us...
متن کاملMesiodistal sizes and intermaxillary tooth-size ratios of two populations; Spanish and Peruvian. A comparative study.
INTRODUCTION Adequate tooth-size ratios are required to ensure the satisfactory outcome of orthodontic treatment. Consequently, various methods of measuring tooth-size ratios have been developed being the Bolton ratio the most commonly accepted, known and used one. This ratio depending directly on mesiodistal tooth size has been associated with different ethnic backgrounds. Some authors suggest...
متن کاملErrors and discrepancies in measurement of tooth size.
A. Error. This word is used correctly with two different meanings: 1. To denote the difference between a measured value and the "true" value. Except in a few trivial cases, the "true" value is unknown and the magnitude of the error is hypothetical. 2. When a number such as (±.087) is given or implied, "error" refers to the estimated uncertainty in an experiment and is expressed in terms of such...
