Facial Clues and Vertical Dimension of Occlusion: Diagnostic Study in a Moroccan Population

: The methods for recording the vertical dimension of occlusion, rest or phonetic vertical are very numerous, attesting to the absence of a universal scientific method for its determination. The aesthetic criterion of respecting morphological proportions constitutes for many authors a preferential reference guide. Determining the vertical occlusion dimension (DVO) remains a complex and imprecise step using several complementary methods. Exploitation of clues Facials seem a simple and promising means but a subject still to controversies. The goal of the study is to detect the prevalence, association and correlation that may exist between the vertical dimension of occlusion and certain facial clues in a toothed population in search of a simplified method for the determination of DVO in complete
