Résumé

Introduction : La sélection de la taille des dents antérieures maxillaires est l'une des étapes cliniques des plus importantes dans la réussite de l'esthétique de la prothèse amovible. Plusieurs études ont été réalisées pour établir des méthodes d'estimation de la largeur des dents antérieures maxillaires.
Objectif : Déterminer l’existence d’une corrélation entre la largeur du nez, la distance inter-canthus interne et la distance inter-canine maxillaire, afin de faciliter le choix des dents antérieures maxillaires.
Matériel et méthodes : Soixante-deux étudiants marocains de la faculté de médecine Dentaire de Casablanca âgés entre 18 et 26 ans ont été inclus dans cette étude ; La distance inter-canthus interne a été mesurée entre les angles médians de la fissure palpébrale. La largeur du nez a été mesurée entre les ailes du nez au point le plus large. La distance inter-canine maxillaire a été déterminée par voie intra-orale. Les mensurations ont été prises à l’aide d’un pied à coulisse électronique. Les coefficients de corrélation ont été calculés pour déterminer la relation entre les différents éléments (P < 0,05).
Résultats : Bien que les corrélations soient non-significatives, il existe une relation significative entre la distance inter-canthus interne et la largeur du nez.
Conclusion : Dans les limites de cette étude, les résultats suggèrent que la largeur du nez et la distance inter-canthus interne ne peuvent pas être utilisées pour déterminer la largeur des six dents antérieures maxillaires pour les patients édentés totaux ou partiels.

Abstract
Correlation between Intercanthus, intercanine and nose-width distances in a Moroccan population

Introduction: Selection of proper sized maxillary anterior teeth is one of the difficult clinical steps in complete denture esthetics. Several studies have been reported to establish methods of estimating the combined width of maxillary anterior teeth.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine whether a relationship exists between the innercanthal distance and interalar width with the maxillary inter-canine distance
Material and methods: The maxillary anterior teeth of 62 students of the faculty of dentistry of Casablanca were examined. They ranged in age from 18 to 26 years. Intercanthal dimension was measured between the median angles of the palpebral fissure. interalar width was measured between the ala of the nose at their widest point. The maxillary inter-canine distance was determined intraorally at their widest dimension. The measurements were measured with a digital vernier caliper. Pearson’s correlation coefficients were calculated to determine the relationship between ICD (intercanthal dimension), IAW (interalar width) and the combined width of maxillary anterior teeth (p = 0.05).
Results: Although the Pearson correlation coefficients were relatively small and not significant, a significant relationship existed between intercanthal dimension and IAW (P < 0, 05).
Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, the results suggest that ICD and IAW cannot be used as a preliminary method for determining the width of the maxillary anterior teeth for totally or partially edentulous patients.
