Incisor size analysis to predict mesiodistal diameter in unerupted canine and premolar crowns in native and non-native Chilean population

Int. j. morphol; 35 (4), 2017
SUMMARY: The principal orthodontic problems observed in the mixed dentition phase are related to arch length and tooth size discrepancy. In order to identify such space discrepancies different methods of mixed dentition space analyses have been introduced. For this reason the purpose of this study is to ...

A morphometric study of auricular concha in the population of young Chinese adults

Int. j. morphol; 35 (4), 2017
SUMMARY: A detailed data of concha is currently not available. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine twelve morphometric measurements of concha, to investigate its sexual dimorphism and bilateral asymmetry, and to establish basic shapes of concha for both sexes and sides. The study sample compr...
