A New Mathematical Approach to Esthetic Proportion

Bhaskar Agarwal, Mohit Kumar, Varun Arora, Srishti Agarwal

Abstract :

Golden proportion has been a word of curiosity from a long-long time in dentistry and particularly in the selection of anterior teeth. Lombardi and there after Levin proposed the concept of golden proportion for selection of anterior teeth. A series of studies have been done to verify this proportion, many studies were in favor of but others were against it. In the present study, we have tried to deduce a mathematical relationship between inner canthal distance (ICD) and central incisor width (CIW) and tried to establish a relationship in terms of golden proportion. The relationship in males was found to be 10 times golden proportion + ICD and age correction factors whereas among females this was 11 times golden proportion + ICD correction factor.
