Abstrakt: Objective: This study proposes a cephalometric method to determine an individual radius of the curve of Spee in cases of occlusal prosthetic rehabilitation.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 469 lateral cephalograms. Statistical analysis was performed. Correlations were computed using simple regression, Z tests, paired t -tests, and one-way repeated measures ANOVA.
Results: Regression calculations supported a link between the radius of the curve of Spee and occlusal plane inclination, Balkwill's angle, mandibular parameters (MP), with MP = corpus - ramus + Bonwill height. Based on MP, data that are accessible even in the absence of teeth, a regression formula can be proposed to provide an individualized estimation of the radius of the Spee curve (RCS): RCS = 0.624 * MP + 26.583.
Conclusion: This study proposes an individualized estimation of the RCS from only skeletal mandibular parameters: the length of the ramus, length of the corpus, and the Bonwill height.
