Abstract

Morphometric indices of the depth of the maxillary basal arches of the mesocranial, brachiocranal and dolichocranial types of the skull were studied. The work was performed on 187 preparations of skulls of people of both sexes of the first and second periods of adulthood with physiological occlusion of teeth. As a result of the study, the minimum and maximum limits of basal arches depth indices at the level of canines, premolars and molars were determined. It was found that at the level of premolars the depth of basal arcs in men of mesocranial skulls statistically significantly exceeded the depth of basal arches in women. In each craniotype, the depth of basal arches at the level of canines and molars in men and women was not statistically significant.
