Modeling the correct form of the dental arch in girls with a very broad face depending on cephalometric indicators according to steiner’s or tweed’s methods and tooth dimensions.

Abstract

In young Ukrainian women with a physiological bite and a very wide facial type, based on the analysis of the features of teleradiometric indicators according to the Steiner or Tweed methods and computed tomography sizes of the teeth, all possible (18 models each) reliable (p<0.001 in all cases) highly informative (with a coefficient of determination greater than 0.6) regression models of linear parameters of the dental arches were constructed and analyzed (respectively R2= from 0.716 to 0.936 when taking into account teleradiometric indicators according to the Steiner method; and R2= from 0.657 to 0.878 when taking into account teleradiometric indicators according to the Tweed method).
