Abstract
AIM: To explore the association between the head circumference and maxillary anterior teeth dimensions. MATERIALS AND METHOD: A total of 150 subjects, evenly divided between males and females, were randomly selected for the evaluation of craniometric and odontometric measurements. The measurements were taken using a non-stretchable measuring tape and a sliding digital stainless-steel Vernier caliper. The statistical analyses included One-way ANOVA, correlation, and linear regression analysis. The confidence level of 95%, was determined with a P value threshold of less than 0.05 for statistical significance. RESULTS: Males exhibited a larger average head circumference than females, indicating a highly statistically significant gender dimorphism in cranial circumference. Additionally, males demonstrated a statistically significant increase in the mean combined mesio-distal width of maxillary anterior teeth when compared to females. The Pearson correlation test revealed a weak negative correlation for males, while a weak positive correlation was observed for females and the combined data. CONCLUSION: The findings of the study did not reveal a significant correlation; however, they may serve as foundational data for future research involving a larger sample size.
