Abstract

Objective: For early diagnosis of malocclusion various methods such as lip prints, fingerprints and palatal rugae have been studied in the past, however, this study was unique in that it takes into consideration three factors i.e., lip prints, fingerprints and palatal rugae simultaneously to correlate with malocclusion.

Materials and methods: 105 participants were equally divided as class I, class II and class III malocclusion based on ANB angle, Beta angle and Wits appraisal. The lip prints were recorded using lipstick cellophane method and were examined by Suzuki and Tsuchihashi method. For recording fingerprints, ink and stamp method was used and were analysed using Michael and Kucken method. Palatal rugae were marked on patients' maxillary casts and examined using the Lysell and the Kapali et al classification. To investigate the relationship between lip prints, fingerprints, palatal rugae, and skeletal malocclusions, the aforementioned values were all put through the Chi-square test.

Results: The lip print analysis revealed type II pattern being most predominant in all malocclusion groups. The fingerprint pattern analysis revealed Loop pattern being most predominant and arch pattern as least predominant. Whorl pattern was more frequent in Class III malocclusion compared to class I and class II malocclusion. The palatal rugae pattern revealed curved shape of palatal rugae and primary rugae as most predominant in all malocclusion groups.

Conclusion: The study may have implications in allometric evaluations pertaining to anthropological, anatomical, morphological studies, however, the study may not be directly useful in early diagnosis of skeletal malocclusion.

舌镜、指纹图谱与腭镜在骨骼错咬合中的相关性研究。
目的:为了早期诊断错牙合,以往已有唇印、指纹、腭纹等多种方法的研究,但本研究的独特之处在于同时考虑了唇印、指纹和腭纹三个因素与错牙合的相关性。材料与方法:105例受试者根据ANB角、Beta角和Wits评分分为ⅰ类、ⅱ类和ⅲ类错颌合。唇印采用唇膏玻璃纸法记录,铃木法和土桥法检测。指纹记录采用墨印法,分析采用Michael和Kucken法。在患者的上颌铸型上标记腭纹,并使用Lysell和Kapali等人的分类进行检查。为探讨唇印、指纹、腭纹与骨骼错咬合的关系,将上述数值进行卡方检验。结果:唇印分析显示ⅱ型型在所有错颌组中均占主导地位。指纹图谱分析显示,环状纹最明显,拱形纹最不明显。与I、II类错牙合相比,III类错牙合中螺旋型更常见。腭纹形态以弯曲型腭纹和原发型腭纹为主。结论:本研究可能对与人类学、解剖学、形态学相关的异速生长评估有一定的指导意义,但对骨骼错颌畸形的早期诊断可能没有直接的指导意义。
