Resumen
A proper diagnosis is essential to a proper orthodontic treatment plan. For this purpose, we use the patient records are, radiographs, photographs, study models and proper clinical examination. With all these data, we made a list of problems constituting orthodontic diagnosis.
The major target of orthodontics are restore function and aesthetics to the patient, which is achieved by employing good diagnostic aids, within them mentioned Bolton analysis. This is a method for determining the proportion of the mesiodistal width of the permanent teeth maxillary and mandibulary, also known as size discrepancy of teeth and effect among gag.
It is one of the methods used to determine the tooth size discrepancy, and so authors like Sheridan reported that 91% of orthodontists surveyed using this method at the time of measuring the size of the teeth.
In this study we evaluated 77 study models in order to determine if there are discrepancies between dental arches in the anterior as well as in total by applying the rate of Bolton tooth discrepancies in study models of patients of Orthodontics of postgraduate of Faculty of Dentistry of Cuenca University during the period 2011-2013, obtaining as result that sector at lower total Bolton earlier, the percentages obtained were 50.6% and 66.2%, respectively. While in the upper the total Bolton was in 39% of cases while 27.3% earlier. The molar class obtained in this study, regardless of gender and ethnicity was 80.5% for Class I, 10.4% Class II, and 9.1% Class III, which corresponds to the left side. On the right side found the proportion was 83.1% Class I, 11.7% Class II, and 5.2% Class III
