[Study of the specific features of the tooth and jaw system of Dagestanians and Armenians for personality identification].
The objective of this study was to elucidate anatomic and morphological features of the dental system in several ethnic groups comprising Dagestan population (Laks, Avars, Dargins) and the population of Armenia (Armenians) for the establishment of their ethno-racial identity. Clinical, morphometric, and X-ray studies were conducted; the data obtained were treated statistically. It was demonstrated that the ethnic and racial identity of the population groups of Dagestan and Armenia included in the study can be determined based on selected characteristics of their dentoalveolar system. Moreover, these characteristics may be of some use for personality identification.
