A soft tissue analysis for central India population
A cephalometric study
Keywords:
soft tissue, India population, cephalometric studyAbstract
Based on surgical-orthodontic treatment planning and prediction system Tony G. McCollum(TOMAC), the present study aims to determine surgical norms for Central India population and to evaluate the variation between Central India males and females. Digital lateral cephalograms of hundred subjects (50 males and 50 females) of 15- 25 years of age were obtained. These radiographs were manually traced by single operator based on the parameterstaken from TOMAC soft tissue analysis. The data obtained was statistically analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test and One-sample Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. Statistically significant difference were observed between the Central India population and Caucasian population and also significant sexual dimorphism was noted among the population of Central India. There exist racial diversity between Central India population and the Caucasian population.Therefore, it becomes necessary to have separate norms for different ethnic groups and choose the norms carefully suited to the treatment needs of individual population.
