CORRELATION OF 3D-MORPHOMETRIC FEATURES OF THE DENTOFACIAL SYSTEM IN DISTAL OCCLUSION DURING THE PERMANENT DENTITION PERIOD
Abstract
Objective. To quantitatively assess the mean mesiodistal crown dimensions of permanent teeth of the maxilla and mandible in adult patients with distal occlusion, to classify the dental type of the dental arches (micro-, normo-, macrodontic) and their arch type (dolicho-, meso-, brachyarch), and to identify correlations between these parameters. Methodology. 268 patients aged 17–35 years with distal occlusion were examined. Linear measurements of the mesiodistal dimensions of the crowns of 14 teeth in each jaw were performed on 3D jaw models (cone-beam computed tomography, KaVo OP300 Maxio system). Dental and arch types were determined. Statistical processing in SPSS 23.0 included calculation of means (M±SD) and Pearson's correlation analysis (p
