Abstract

The study is devoted to the review of modern literature on the problem of analyzing the structural features of human dental arches. The aim of the work was to analyze the classifications of the forms of dental arches and the features of their parameters, taking into account the cranio-facial morphology. The features of 9 main forms of dental arches are presented according to the size of teeth and jaws. It is shown that the result of the compilation of dental and gnathic features is their division into dental arches of protrusion, mesotrusion and retrusion types. The designated varieties of forms of dental arches with a physiological occlusive norm are the criterion for choosing the prescriptions of braces and the size of metal arches in the treatment of dentition-alveolar forms of occlusion anomalies. Of particular importance are information about the shape of dental arches in determining the tactics of prosthetic treatment of patients with a complete absence of teeth, where the main reference point is the morphological features of the cranio-facial complex. Analysis of the literature proves the need for further research on the biometric features of dental arches, taking into account cranio-facial morphology, which is an urgent problem of morphology and clinical dentistry and has an important theoretical and applied significance.
