Sažetak

The width and length of the anterior teeth, the dimensions of the frontal dental arches and the dimensions of the hard
palate were measured (24 men and 56 women, age range of 18–30 years). The results showed gender-related dimorphism
only for the cervical width of the maxillary canine, which were wider in men, p<0.05. The width-to-length ratios of the
maxillary frontal teeth varied from 0.82 to 0.91. The tooth-to-tooth width ratios among different maxillary frontal teeth
varied from 0.78 to 0.91. The sum of all anterior maxillary teeth widths was equal to the hamular width and to the distal
maxillary arch width (p>0.05), meaning that the sum of the frontal artificial teeth width may be selected upon the measurement
of the hamular width on the hard palate. The ratios between the maxillary and the mandibular frontal dental
arch dimensions are representative values for the skeletal class I.
