Abstract

Aim: To analyze the morphological parameters of palatal rugae in a population of Maharashtrian ancestry.

Material and methods: This study was conducted on 1000 subjects of Maharashtrian ancestry with at least 3 generations on the mother's and father's side. Their palatal impressions were obtained with alginate and the casts were analyzed for length, shape and direction of palatal rugae.

Results: Our results showed that the most predominant rugae were primary followed by secondary and fragmentary with significant differences between them. The most prevalent rugae shapes found were straight followed by wavy followed by curved with significant differences between them. According to direction, forward rugae were significantly higher than perpendicular rugae and backward rugae.

Conclusion: The rugae are considered to have population specific configurations. This baseline data of patterns of palatal rugae in a sample of Maharashtrian ancestry may serve `as an accessory tool' for population identification in Forensic Dentistry.

马哈拉施特拉血统人群腭纹形态的形态学分析:一项横断面研究。

目的:分析马哈拉施特拉血统人群腭纹的形态学参数。材料和方法:本研究对1000名马哈拉施特拉血统的受试者进行了研究，父母双方至少有3代。用海藻酸盐对其腭印模进行了分析，分析了腭纹的长度、形状和方向。结果:以原发性红斑为主，其次为继发性红斑和断续性红斑，差异有统计学意义。最常见的皱纹形状是直纹，其次是波浪纹，最后是弯曲纹，它们之间的差异很大。从方向上看，向前纹波明显高于垂直纹波和向后纹波。结论:疣子被认为具有种群特异性配置。在马哈拉施特拉血统的样本中，这种腭纹模式的基线数据可以作为法医牙科人群识别的“辅助工具”。
