Comparisons of impacted maxillary canine cusp tip distance to the midline and to the occlusal plane and canine's angulation to the midline for male and female subjects.
Variables | Total (n = 56) | Males (n = 12) | Females (n = 44) | p value |
---|---|---|---|---|
Mean ± SD | Mean ± SD | Mean ± SD | ||
Distance of impacted canine cusp tip to the midline | 7.82 ± 5.35 | 8.28 ± 5.97 | 7.69 ± 5.24 | 0.742 |
Distance of impacted canine cusp tip to the occlusal plane | 11.52 ± 4.71 | 14.42 ± 6.14 | 10.73 ± 3.97 | 0.015 |
Angulation of impacted canine to the midline | 35.92 ± 21.85 | 34.19 ± 15.42 | 36.40 ± 23.43 | 0.760 |
∗ p < 0.05, significant difference.
