Journal Title: International Dental Journal of Student Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the correlation between the palatal rugae pattern face form and arch form among Indian population at Moradabad IndiaMaterials and Methods Alginate impressions of maxillary arch was made and cast was poured immediately with type III dental stone A sharp graphite pencil was used for marking outline of the rugae on the cast A digital caliper was employed for measurement of length of palatal rugae Palatal rugae were analysed in accordance with Thomas and Kotze classification Arch form of these models was determined with using 3M Unite template For assessment of the face form the subjects were seated in an upright position on the operator chair and the camera was stabilized on a tripod Then photographs of the frontal profile were taken These photographs were used for the analysis of the face form The data was subjected to one way analysis of variance test and Post Hoc testResults The average number of primary rugae 1076 were found to be more predominant than secondary 212 and fragmentary rugae 154 The most predominant shape of palatal rugae were curved 4219 followed by wavy 3271 straight 1737 and circular 092 Based on the direction of the rugae forward rugae 5427 were found more common followed by backward rugae 3726 and perpendicular rugae 055 Base on the unification of rugae pattern diverging rugae 455 were found to be more common than the converging rugae 157 The most common face form was ovoid 724 followed by tapered 244 and square 32 The most prevalent arch form was ovoid 622 seen followed by the tapered 260 and square 48 arch formIt was found that there was significant correlation between the face form and arch form among the study subjects plt0001 However no correlation was found between the rugae pattern face form and arch form pgt005 In term of arch form and face form ovoid was the most common followed by tapered and squareConclusion Within the limitations of this study it was concluded that there was significant correlation between the face form and arch form among the study subjects However no correlation was found between the rugae pattern with face form and arch formKeywords Rugae pattern Arch form face form 3M template Caliper
