Forensic odontology plays important role in identification of human remains in mass disasters such as air crash, tsunami, and accidents. Palatal rugae act as an ideal requisite for human identification as they are present in all victims and are resistant to changes such as aging and trauma. The study aimed to analyze differences in shape and number of palatal rugae in population from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states.
This study was conducted in SIBAR institute of Dental Sciences, Guntur, India in 2012 on 200 subjects, gender matched and equally divided as 100 from Andhra Pradesh and 100 from Telangana states. Rugae were studied using Kapali.S classification. Association between rugae shape and gender variation between the two populations were tested by chi-square analysis and student test.
Average number of rugae was more (11.84±3.03) in subjects of Andhra Pradesh, compared to Telangana (9.50 ±1.65) population. Males of Andhra Pradesh showed significantly higher mean number of total rugae than in Telangana males. Distribution of total number of different rugae shapes in males and females of both the populations showed significant variation in wavy and circular rugae patterns. Wavy, curved and straight rugae were significantly higher in males and females of Andhra Pradesh compared to Telangana population. Telangana population showed significant increase in circular rugae.
Our study revealed statistically significant variation in shape and total number of rugae between observed populations of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states.
法医牙科学在空难、海啸和事故等重大灾难中的人类遗骸鉴定中发挥着重要作用。腭皱襞是人类身份识别的理想条件，因为它们存在于所有受害者身上，并且能抵抗衰老和创伤等变化。本研究旨在分析安得拉邦和特伦甘纳邦人群腭皱襞的形状和数量差异。
2012年，本研究在印度贡图尔的西巴尔牙科学院对200名受试者进行，性别匹配，分为两组，每组100人，分别来自安得拉邦和特伦甘纳邦。使用卡帕利.S分类法研究皱襞。通过卡方分析和学生检验来测试皱襞形状与两人群性别差异之间的关联。
安得拉邦受试者的平均皱襞数（11.84±3.03）多于特伦甘纳邦人群（9.50±1.65）。安得拉邦男性的总皱襞平均数显著高于特伦甘纳邦男性。两人群男性和女性中不同皱襞形状的总数分布在波浪状和圆形皱襞模式上存在显著差异。与特伦甘纳邦人群相比，安得拉邦男性和女性的波浪状、弯曲状和直线状皱襞明显更多。特伦甘纳邦人群的圆形皱襞显著增加。
我们的研究表明，安得拉邦和特伦甘纳邦观察到的人群之间，皱襞的形状和总数在统计学上存在显著差异。
