Abstract
Abstract: Establishment of a person's individuality is important for legal as well as humanitarian purpose and gender determination is an essential step in identifying an individual. Dental, fingerprint and DNA comparisons are probably the most common techniques used in this context, allowing fast and secure identification processes. 200 subjects, 100 males and 100 females in the age group of 18 – 30 years were selected for this study. The present study was carried out at Ratna dental hospital, Bikaner, India. The mean age for males was 26.14 (±3.08) years and 22.35 (±3.55) years for females. Mean age of males was found to be significantly higher as compared to that of females (p=0.000001). Inter canine width was found to be significantly higher as compared to that of females (p=0.000001). In present study sexual dimorphism was observed 15.82%.
