[Comparison of tooth size ratios [bolton analysis] among different malocclusion groups]

ABSTRACT

Introduction: For proper occlusal interdigitation or coordination of arches in the finishing stage of orthodontic treatment with proper overjet and overbite would have been a proper mesiodistal tooth size ratio [Bolton analysis] between maxillary and madibular teeth. The Bolton analysis should be taken into consideration when diagnosing, treatment planning and predicting prognosis in clinical orthodontics. In this study tooth size ratio was evaluated among different malocclusion groups
