영구치 전치의 근원심경과 치관 길이에 관한 연구

The mesiodistal crown diameters and crown length of the permanent anterior teeth have been studied and analyzed about the mean size, S.D, S.E etcs from stone models of 100 Korean male and 74 female. From the study, the following conclusions were made : 1. Statistical differences of left and right teeth were not found in the mesio distal crown diameters and crown length of the permanent anterior teeth. 2. The mean values of mesiodistal crown diameters of permanent anterior teeth were slightly larger in male than in females and statistical differences of males and females were found in maxillary right central incisor, mandibular left canine, mandibular right lateral incisor and mandibular right canine. 3. The mean values of crown length of permanent anterior teeth were slightly larger in male than in female and statistical differences of males and females were found in mandibular left canine, mandibular right canine. 4. Mesiodistal crown diameters and crown length of maxillary left lateral incisors and right lateral incisors of female are larger than that of male.
