Aim: The aim of this study was to compare and evaluate the correlation of the facial measurements (interalar, intercommissural, intercanthal, and interpupillary distance) with the combined mesiodistal width of the maxillary anterior teeth between males and females.
Objectives: The objectives of this study were: (a) To evaluate the correlation of the facial measurements (interalar, intercommissural, intercanthal, and interpupillary distance) and combined mesiodistal width of maxillary anterior teeth. (b) To compare the correlation of the facial measurements (interalar, intercommissural, intercanthal, and interpupillary distance) with the combined mesiodistal width of maxillary anterior teeth between males and females.
Materials And Methods: This study was carried out on 120 dentate Subjects selected from Yenepoya Dental College, Mangalore. The vernier caliper was used to measure the interalar, intercommissural, intercanthal, and interpupillary distance. The mesiodistal width of maxillary anterior teeth was measured on the cast. For accuracy, every distance was measured three times and the mean taken.
Results: Comparison of parameters between males and females was calculated using independent sample -test. The values obtained for each variables are interalar distance: for males 38.89 ± 2.19 and for females 35.58 ± 2.33. Intercommissural distance: for males 50.96 ± 2.99 and for females 47.15 ± 2.97. Intercanthal distance: for males 31.92 ± 1.46 and for females 30.46 ± 2.07. Interpupillary distance: for males 65.15 ± 2.82 and for females 61.78 ± 3.18. Mesiodistal width of maxillary anterior teeth: for males 52.55 ± 1.82 and for females 51.33 ± 2.50.
Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, the study concluded there is a significant correlation between interalar, intercommissural, intercanthal, interpupillary distance, and mesiodistal width of maxillary anterior teeth in total subjects. In females, there is a significant correlation between interalar, intercanthal, interpupillary distance, and mesiodistal width of maxillary anterior teeth.

Comparing the Existence of Golden Proportion Using Maxillary Anterior Teeth Dimensions in Primary and Permanent Dentition: A Cross-sectional Study.
Int J Clin Pediatr Dent

Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, Government College of Dentistry, Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India.
Aims And Background: The golden proportion is based on the premise that there is a link between natural beauty and mathematics. The study aimed to analyze the mesiodistal width of maxillary anterior teeth in primary and permanent dentition to determine whether a golden proportion exists among them.
Materials And Methods: Sixty subjects were randomly selected in accordance with inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Background: The collum angle, tooth dimensions, root length, and alveolar bone thickness have a significant impact on orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. The boundaries of orthodontic tooth movement are determined by alveolar bone thickness and dimensions while the collum angle determines the appropriate positioning of the root relative to the cortical plate. This study aimed to compare the collum angle, crown dimensions, root length, and alveolar bone thickness of the upper and lower incisors, canines, and premolars in subjects with varying anteroposterior relationships.

Article Synopsis
- This study compared clear aligners (CA) with removable inclined planes (RIP) for treating anterior crossbite in children aged 8 to 12, using 3D digital models to assess treatment outcomes.
- Twenty-four patients were randomly divided into two groups and evaluated on various dental metrics before and after 4 months of treatment, focusing on the movement of maxillary incisors.
- Results indicated that while both methods were effective, the clear aligner group showed greater improvements in maxillary incisor movement, intermolar width, and arch perimeter compared to the RIP group.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of material type on dimensional stability, occlusal surface wear, fracture resistance, and failure behavior of resin-based onlay restorations.
Material And Methods: A mandibular right first molar typodont was prepared and digitized using an intraoral scanner to virtually design an onlay restoration with the minimum occlusal thickness of 1.5 mm.
Comparative Morphometric Study of the Occipital Condyle in Class III and Class I Skeletal Malocclusion Patients.

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Giresun University, 28200 Giresun, Turkey.
Objectives: Since the formation of skeletal malocclusions is closely linked to general craniofacial development, it is crucial to understand the anatomy and growth patterns of the skull base. This study aimed to assess the morphometry of the occipital condyle (OC) on CBCT scans of Class III skeletal malocclusion subjects and compare the findings with those of skeletal Class I malocclusion subjects.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on CBCT images based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria.
