(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-11-25) Diapis Perez, Milagro del Carmen; Guevara Sotomayor, Juan César
The sample consisted of 168 patients who visited the dental clinic. Each patient was carefully informed about the present research, and after the patient's consent was obtained, the informed consent form was provided. Points of reference were marked on the face, and the required measurements for determining the variables were taken using a digital caliper. The results were recorded in a data collection form. Methodology: This study was conducted using a database in the Excel program, with graphs and tables provided. For statistical and analytical data, the SPSS 25 program was used, followed by statistical analysis. Results: The research results showed that the occlusal vertical dimension, determined by the Knebelman method, was 72.9 mm for the right eye-ear measurement and 72.8 mm for the left eye-ear measurement. The occlusal vertical dimension in rest position was found to be 69.9 mm. Facial biotype was determined according to gender, with the following results: in females, 93% had a dolichofacial biotype, 2.3% had a mesofacial biotype, and 4.7% had a brachyfacial biotype. In males, 92.7% had a dolichofacial biotype, 4.9% had a mesofacial biotype, and 2.4% had a brachyfacial biotype. Conclusion: The facial biotype is not significantly related to the vertical dimension.
