ABSTRACT Introduction: The alterations in the arch form during treatment are dictated by the dimensions of the archwires. Objective: This study aimed to determine the mean arch dimensions of a sample of Pakistani subjects and to evaluate the conformity of preformed archwires with mandibular arch form. Methods: The dental records of 1,500 adult subjects were evaluated. The mandibular casts of 42 subjects (males = females = 21) with balanced facial profile, Class I occlusion, ideal overjet and overbite were included. Brackets were bonded on all teeth. Arch dimensions were evaluated at canines, first premolars, second premolars, first and second molars, with digital vernier calipers. The arch widths at the level of aforementioned teeth were evaluated on the digitized archwires, using the mean arch depths of the subjects. Results: In males, the archwires were found to be wider at canines and premolars, and significantly narrower at first (p< 0.001, 95% CI = 2.03 - 5.74) and second molars (p< 0.001, 95% CI = 2.29 - 7.73) as compared to the arch dimensions of the mandibular casts. In females, the archwires were significantly narrower at canines (p< 0.001, 95% CI = 1.4 - 3.97), and first (p= 0.02, 95% CI = 0.402 - 4.41) and second molars (p< 0.001, 95% CI = 1.76 - 6.13). Conclusion: No single commercially available archwires evaluated in the present study conformed to the arch dimensions of our subjects. Utilization of the currently available archwires may result in unwarranted modification of arch form, which may lead to unstable post-treatment teeth position.

Abstract: Mandibular arch size and form are required in order to establish proper diagnoses and orthodontic treatment plans. Mandibular dental arch is a factor affecting maximum stability of treatment outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine means of mandibular arch size and form in Mongondow ethnic group.This research was classified into descriptive observational with cross sectional study. Sample of this research were 35 peoples aged 18-25 years at the original Mongondow ethnic group based on two generation of grandparents. Samples were taken by using purposive sampling method. The measurement of dental arch length and width were done in sagittal and transversal direction based on the Raberin’s method. Results showed that the average values of mandibular arch length in Mongondow ethnic group which categorized as depths of canines (L31), depths first molars (L61) and depths of second molars were 5.18 mm;24.26 mm; and 39.34 mm respectively. The average values of mandibular arch width which categorized as inter canines (L33), inter first molars (L66) and inter second molars (L77) were 27.38 mm, 45.60 mm and 53.59 mm respectively. The most mandibular arch form of Mongondow ethnic group was mid (51.4%) and the less of this group was pointed (5.7%).Keywords: dental arch size, dental arch form, mandibular, Mongondow ethnic groupAbstrak: Ukuran dan bentuk lengkung gigi rahang bawah sangat diperlukan dalam menentukan diagnosa dan rencana perawatan ortodontik yang tepat. Lengkung gigi rahang bawah merupakan faktor yang sangat berpengaruh dalam mempertahankan stabilitas hasil perawatan ortodonti. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mendapatkan rerata ukuran dan bentuk lengkung gigi rahang bawah pada suku Mongondow. Jenis penelitian ini yaitu observasional deskriptif dengan desain penelitian cross sectional study. Sampel yang diperoleh sebanyak 35 orang suku Mongondow asli dari dua generasi yag berusia 18-25 tahun. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Pengukuran panjang dan lebar lengkung gigi diukur dalam arah sagital dan transversal pada model studi/hasil cetakan rahang bawah dengan metode Raberin. Hasil pengukuran diperoleh rerata ukuran panjang lengkung gigi rahang bawah pada suku Mongondow yang dikategorikan sebagai kedalaman kaninus (L31), kedalaman molar pertama (L61) dan kedalaman molar kedua (L71) berturut-turut yaitu 5,18 mm; 24,26 mm; dan 39,34 mm. Rerata ukuran lebar lengkung gigi yang dikategorikan sebagai lebar interkaninus (L33), lebar intermolar pertama (L66) dan lebar intermolar kedua (L77) berturut-turut yaitu 27,38 mm; 45,60 mm dan; 53,59 mm. Bentuk lengkung gigi rahang bawah pada suku Mongondow paling banyak yaitu bentuk mid (51,4%) dan yang paling sedikit yaitu bentuk pointed (5,7%). Kata kunci: ukuran lengkung gigi, bentuk lengkung gigi, rahang bawah, suku Mongondow

Abstract Background: In fixed orthodontic therapy, maintenance of the original mandibular arch form is considered an essential factor for stability, moreover with the popular use of elastic archwires, and because its shape cannot be easily altered, the pre-determination of mandibular arch form becomes very important for each patient. The purpose of this study is to analyze the mandibular dental arch forms of Sudanese adults with normal occlusion and provides an easy method for orthodontists to determine different types of arch form. Methods: This Descriptive analytical, cross-sectional study determined the mandibular arch in a sample of 104 Sudanese university students. Measurements were done in the mandibular dental cast. Three arch widths and three arch lengths measurements were established and five ratios were determined. Analysis of arch form was done according to Raberin’s polynomial method. Results: The mid arch form was the most prevalent (75%), followed by narrow arch form (11.54%), wide arch form (6.73%), and pointed arch form (6.73%). There were no cases in flat arch form. Conclusions: In Sudanese subjects, four types of arch form were recognized. Norms of transverse and sagittal dimensions of the mandibular arch to determine types of the mandibular arch form in Sudanese orthodontic patients become available.
