Overview

Observational analysis found significant bilateral symmetry and biometric measurement for occlusal vertical dimension in complete dentition.

Key Points

  • The measurements showed strong bilateral symmetry with a correlation coefficient of 0.859.
  • Mean intercanine distances were 16.7 mm on the right side and 16.9 mm on the left side.
  • Observational study conducted on 210 adult dental students with complete dentition and healthy periodontium.
  • Findings highlight an accessible anatomical reference for determining occlusal vertical dimension.
