Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 5

Abstract

Aesthetics is one of the key factorials in dental sciences which is not based on any fixed rules. SPA concept was prescribed to aid clinicians in selection of teeth according to age, sex and personality of the patient. Materials & method: 200 students comprising of 100 males and 100 females were taken in the study. Alginate impressions were made of maxillary arches and casts were poured in Type III dental stone. Measurements were done using Vernier caliper for individual tooth. A line following the maximum contours of teeth was drawn perpendicular to the long axis of teeth and measurements were carried out for all 100 maxillary casts. Thread was also used to measure Mesiodistal width of three teeth on both right and left sides and entire mesiodistal width of 6 teeth. Data was collected and statistically analyzed. Result: The mean mesio distal width of all six anterior teeth was found to be 47.1 mm in males and 46.1 mm in females. In males, the mean mesio distal width of three anterior teeth on right and left side was found to be 23.8 mm and 23.3 mm respectively. In females, The mean mesio distal width of three anterior teeth on right and left side was found to be 23.4 mm and 22.7 mm respectively The mean difference between central incisors, lateral Incisors and canines on right and left side was found to be 0.1 mm, 0.2mm and 0.2 mm in males and 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm and 0.2 mm in females respectively. Conclusion: The mesio-distal width of anterior maxillary teeth was found more in males than females. Both males and females have more mesio-distal width on right side than left side in population of Jammu.
