Determination of Soft Tissue Cephalometric Norms of Rajasthan Population Using Holdway Analysis
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: Different regional groups have different soft tissue structures, so it is necessary to establish the soft tissue norms of different regional groups for effective orthodontic treatment. Materials and methods: 270 lateral cephalograms of subjects with age group 18-25 years, Angle’s class I dentoalveolar malocclusion, normal overjet and overbite, presence of all permanent teeth and well balanced facial profile were selected. Holdway soft tissue cephalometric analysis was performed and studied. Result: The H- angle, upper and lower lip to S - line, upper lip curvature, lower lip to H line, upper and lower sulcus depth and upper lip strain factor were higher whereas nasolabial angle, upper lip to E-line and nose tip to H line were lesser for Rajasthan population as compared to Caucasians. Conclusion: Rajasthanis have protrusive upper and lower lips as compared to Caucasians.
