title: [A Study On Dental and Craniofacial Structure of Normal Shanghai Adults Occlusion-III The Analysis of Dental Capacity and Craniofacial Structure]
abstract: OBJECTIVE:To examine the relationships between dental capacity and cranioficial structures.METHODS:Models, posterioanterior and lateral cephalometric films of 90 adults with normal occlusion in Shanghai area were measured and analyzed.RESULTS:The canine width of lower arch extended an important influence on the upper and lower arch. The dental capacity was highly correlated not only with the width and depth of cranioficial structure  but with the height as well. The database of Coben analysis for normal Shanghai adults occlusion was established.CONCLUSION:The growth between dental and cranioficial structure was harmonized in three dimensions.
