Objective: To assess the dental arch forms of Yemeni adult sample. Materials & Method: The Eucledian clustering method of analysis was utilized for the determination of dental arch form. A total of 398 study models were constructed and evaluated to do measurements for both arches using a modified sliding caliper gauge. Six dental cast measurements divided into three sagittal and three transverse measurements were utilized to represent the dental arch width and length measurements. Result: Narrow form is the most prevalent arch form (30.9%) followed by wide form (23.9%), their prominence appear more in females and the least prevalent arch form was the mid form (9.3%), while flat and pointed forms were in between 18.3% and 17.6% respectively. Conclusion: Five arch forms: narrow, wide, mid, pointed and flat were distinguished as unique forms for the dental arches, with the predominance of the narrow arch form were found among Yemeni adults.

Abstract: Mandibular dental arch size and form are required to establish proper diagnosis and treatment plans in order to achieve maximum stability of treatment outcomes. This study aimed to determine the means of mandimular dental arch size and form in Minahasa ethnic. This study used 25 models of mandibular from Minahasan students at Dentistry Sam Ratulangi University selected by inclusion and exclusion criterion. The models were measured in sagittal (dental arch length) and transversal (dental arch width) direction based on Raberin’s method. The result of the dental arch length means of mandibular arch of Minahasan students in sagittal direction L31, L61, and L71 were 5.12, 23.47, and 38.78 mm consecutively, while the dental arch width in transversal direction L33, L66 and L77 were 26.02, 46.86, and 55.90 mm. The distribution of mandibular dental arch form were mid 36%, narrow 24%, wide 20%, flat 12%, and pointed 8%.Keywords: dental arch length and width, dental arch form, mandibular, Minahasan ethnicAbstrak: Ukuran dan bentuk lengkung gigi rahang bawah sangat diperlukan dalam menentukan diagnosis dan rencana perawatan yang tepat.

Dental Cast

Dental cast analysis is one of the important thing in orthodontic treatments. One of the dental cast analysis which is usually used is Pont analysis, proposed in 1909. Pont did his research to a population in French which is Caucasian and stated that his theory needs to be tested to another ethnics to verify the applicability of Pont analysis to that population. On each race, there are some specific physical characteristics such as the form and width of dentition and dental arch. Minang population are Mongolian who has the different characteristics of dentition and dental arch with the Caucasians.The aim of this study is to identify whether Pont analysis is precise to be used to Minang population. Method : Cross-sectional design was used in this study. This study was done to 65 upper dental casts from Minang student at the Faculty of Dentistry Andalas University who met the inclusion criteria. The difference between the measured and the calculated interpremolar and intermolar arch width was tested with paired T test with the significant value of 0.05 (p=0.05). Result : Mean value of interpremolar width was 37.8838 ± 2.29042 mm and intermolar width was 47.6046±3.18780 mm. The result of statistical analysis showed that there is no significant differences of the measured and the calculated interpremolar and intermolar width of Minang Student at Faculty of Dentistry Andalas University (p>0.05). Conclusion : Pont analysis can be used as one of the dental cast analysis in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning to Minang population. It is suggested to do a further research to identify lower dental arch form of the Minang population whose upper dental arch width equals to the predicted arch width according to Pont’s formula.

Dental Arch Form

Introduction: Human dental arch acquires stable form and dimensions with the attainment of adulthood. The orthodontic treatment regimen signifies the predetermination of the shape and type of dental arch form of a particular adult population to harmonize with their natural pattern. The use of predetermined arch form helps in diagnosis, treatment planning and stability of orthodontic treatment results. Objective: To analyze the dental arch forms of Nepalese adults and to classify them into morphological types. Materials & Method: Predetermined transverse and sagittal dimensions on dental stone models of one hundred Nepalese adults aged 17-32 years with normal occlusion and dentofacial proportion were measured using standardized Boley gauze. The analysis was done according to Raberin’s mathematical sixth degree polynomial method. The study compared the gender difference among the Nepalese samples. Result: The distribution of the Nepalese arch form types were; 26% flat arch, 24% wide arch, 19% pointed arch, 18% narrow arch and 13% mid arch. Conclusion: Considerable variation in distribution of dental arch form types found between Nepalese male and female samples and among population groups. The analysis enables the mathematical method that predetermines the dental arch form of the individual orthodontic patient.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ojn.v3i1.9267 Orthodontic Journal of Nepal, Vol.3, No.1, 2013: 7-13

Aim: Objectives: To analyze variations in dental arch width in relation to oral habits.   Materials and Methods : Cross sectional  study was carried out Department of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics of Dhaka Dental College & Hospital, Dhaka with a total number of 600 primary school children of 3-6 years ages of Bangladeshi population. Results: This study was a cross sectional study conducted among the 600 children with 3-6 years old prima- ry school children of Bangladeshi population. According to present study, bottle feeding causes significant reduction in maxillary intercanine width and mouth breathers show significant reduction of both arches. Conclusion: It was observed that the children who had used a bottle had a significant reduction in maxillary intercanine width. Breathing through mouth appeared to be associated with a reduction in the size of both arches. This was more significant in the maxillary intercanine , mandibular  intercanine and mandibular molar widths. Therefore to prevent malocclusions, the public should be informed of the harm caused by certain oral habits, the benefits of breast-feeding, and the need to correct bad habits at early life.

Summary Objectives: The diagnostic procedure commences with the initial examination, during which a number of individual findings of the occlusion or malocclusion are clarified [1]. The objective is to describe the morphological and functional characteristics on each patient using specific guidelines, and then to provide a prognosis of the therapy. Upper and lower arch compression in first premolars and molars area was visible before treatment. Methods: A special device (Czech technical university research prototype) was prepared for this purpose. The optical head contains a digital color camera. The front of the optical head consists of a removable prism which is put into the mouth. The findings can display live images from the camera, which can be archived on a PC. The device captured and geometrically calibrated images permitting comparison of several different dental casts. Results: In the first part of this study 792 sets of study plaster casts were screened. Measurements of dental arch width between reference points of canines, first premolars and first molars were made: upper jaw: men: 3-3 – 35.1 mm (SE 0.13); 4-4 – 37.5 mm (SE 0.13); 6-6 – 48.1 mm (SE 0.19); women: 3-3 – 33.4 mm (SE 0.13); 4-4 – 35.6 mm (SE 0.15); 6-6 – 46.7 mm (SE 0.19). The second part concerns the group of 36 patients which is different from the 792 controls. There were studied changes between initial, post-treatment and post-retention alignment of upper and lower dental arch. Conclusions: Geometrically calibrated images help compare several different steps of the treatment and show a significant difference between patients before and after treatment.
