Precision of Moyers table values of predicting C-P2 segment applicable to our population
,
Abstract
Introduction: One of the basic tasks of the orthodontist is to establish a proper dental array, to provide a favorable mastication function and an adequate appearance of the maxillofacial complex.Aim: The aim of this paper was to determine whether the values obtained from Moyers' tablets within the 75% probability correspond to the values the width of the side segment measured on our population. Subjects and method: The study included 60 people with a constant dentition of age from 15 to 18 years (30 men and 30 women). Results: The total tooth width of the side segment in the upper and lower jaw obtained from Moyers's analysis is significantly higher than Our findings, regardless of gender, with an average of about 1mm. Conclusion: We have defined the new regression equations for calculating the size of the C-P2 segment for the upper and lower jaws especially for men and especially for females.
