    This study was conducted with the aim of determining the relationship between facial pattern and tooth type according to morphopsychology in patients treated at the Private University Norbert Wiener Dental Clinic, Lima, 2018. The population consisted of 600 patients over 18 years of age who were treated at the Private University Norbert Wiener Dental Clinic during the 2018-1 academic period. Clinical measurements of facial height and width were taken using a digital Vernier caliper, and intraoral photographs were captured and later evaluated. The research was observational, prospective, cross-sectional, and descriptive. The Murray and Larry formula was used to calculate the representative sample, which consisted of 113 patients who met specific inclusion criteria. The following variables were collected: sex, facial pattern, morphopsychology of tooth type, and age. Data entry and statistical analysis were performed using the IBM SPSS 25.0® statistical program for Windows 10. The results showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the facial pattern and the tooth type according to morphopsychology. The most prevalent pattern was dolichofacial at 23.9%, corresponding to the oval tooth type, followed by triangular, rectangular, and square types at 14.2%, 2.7%, and 5.3%, respectively. In conclusion, the results indicated that tooth type according to morphopsychology should not be related to facial pattern, as no statistically significant association was found.
