Anthropometric Study Of The Facial And Nasal Length Of Adult Igbo Ethnic Group In Nigeria
Cephalometric techniques have been used by numerous researchers to produce standard mean values for skeletal, dental, and soft tissue structures. This has become useful in the classification of different populations. In the present study, 600 adult Igbo subjects (18-69yrs) comprising 300 males and 300 females were measured for facial height (FH) and nasal height (NH). The result obtained showed that on the average, the Facial Height (FH) of adult Igbo males was found to be 12.55 cm ± 2.11 cm while that of Adult Igbo females was found to be 11.19 cm ± 1.92cm.Futhermore, the Nasal Height (NH) for adult Igbo males was found to be 4.87 cm ± 0.84cm and 4.40 cm ± 0.76 for Adult Igbo Females. Statistical analysis of mean and Standard Deviation indicates sexual dimorphism, with significantly higher value (p 0.05) of all parameters in males compared to females. The result of this study will be of importance in functional orthodontics, clinical practice and forensic medicine.
