Sex
Male 0.75±0.29 0.82±0.31
Female 0.77±0.30 0.76±0.32
Jaw of the tooth
Maxilla 0.86±0.31 0.96±0.28
Mandible 0.67±0.24 0.59±0.23
Position of the tooth
Central incisor 0.75±0.28 0.81±0.33
Lateral incisor 0.78±0.31 0.74±0.30
Orthognathic surgery history
Maxilla 0.74±0.29 0.77±0.32
Mandible 0.73±0.28 0.76±0.31
Inclination of the tooth
Proclination 0.74±0.26 0.72±0.32
Retroclination 0.78±0.31 0.81±0.31

Proclination means forward (i.e., labial) tilting, and retroclination means backward (i.e., palatal or lingual) tilting. Data are distance (mm) values which expressed as mean±standard deviation except where indicated otherwise.

IGT: initial labial gingival thickness, IBT: initial labial alveolar bone thickness, SD: standard deviation.
