| Summary: | Abstract
The present study aimed to determine the mesiodistal axial
angulations of upper and lower permanent anterior teeth in
young Iraqi adults having normal occlusion using postero–anterior
cephalograph. Also to detect the sex difference in the
mesiodistal axial angulations of such teeth.
The sample consisted of 33 young Iraqi adult students,
17 males and 16 females aged 20–23 years old who were having
Class I normal occlusion. Postero–anterior cephalograph
was taken for each subject and was traced to determine the
mesiodistal axial angulation of upper and lower permanent
anterior teeth.
The results revealed that the mean values of mesiodistal
axial teeth angulations in both sexes showed very limited variation.
No significant bilateral differences were found for right
and left sides for both jaws (for males, females and total
sample).
From the above results, it could be concluded that no significant
bilateral differences in mesiodistal axial tooth angulations
were found for both jaws, for total sample and for both
sexes. Also, male–female comparison showed no significant
difference in mesiodistal axial teeth angulations and for both
jaws. |
