The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between different cheiloscopic patterns with the canine relationship in deciduous dentition.
Three-hundred children who were 3-6 years old with complete primary dentition were recruited and the relationships between maxillary and mandibular canines were recorded in the pro forma. Lip prints of the patients were recorded with the lipstick-cellophane method, and middle 10 mm of the lower lip was analyzed for the lip print pattern. The patterns were classified based on the Tsuchihashi and Suzuki classification.
Type II (branched) pattern was the most predominant cheiloscopic pattern. The predominant patterns which related to the terminal planes were Type IV (reticular) pattern for Class I, Type IV (reticular) and I (complete vertical) patterns for Class II, and the presence of Type V (irregular) pattern for Class III. Presence of Type I (complete vertical) and II (branched) patterns in males and Type II (branched) pattern alone in females can suggest for a Class II canine relationship.
Lip prints can provide an alternative to dermatoglyphics to predict the canine relationship in primary dentition. Further studies with larger sample size are required to provide an insight into its significant correlations.
本研究旨在评估乳牙列中不同唇纹模式与尖牙关系之间的相关性。
招募300名3至6岁乳牙列完整的儿童，用表格记录上颌和下颌尖牙的关系。采用口红-玻璃纸法记录患者的唇纹，并分析下唇中间10毫米的唇纹模式。根据土桥和铃木分类法对模式进行分类。
II型（分支型）模式是最主要的唇纹模式。与终末平面相关的主要模式为：I类为IV型（网状）模式，II类为IV型（网状）和I型（完全垂直型）模式，III类为V型（不规则型）模式。男性出现I型（完全垂直型）和II型（分支型）模式以及女性仅出现II型（分支型）模式可能提示II类尖牙关系。
唇纹可为预测乳牙列中的尖牙关系提供一种替代皮纹学的方法。需要进行更大样本量的进一步研究以深入了解其显著相关性。
