    Area of Science:

    • Dental anatomy
    • Anthropology
    • Gerontology

    Background:

    • Cross-sectional studies suggest age and edentulism increase the gonial angle.
    • This perspective is widely accepted in dental and anthropological research.
    • However, the evidence base requires critical re-evaluation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between aging, edentulism, and changes in the gonial angle.
    • To challenge the prevailing view based on longitudinal data.
    • To propose an alternative model for gonial angle variability.

    Main Methods:

    • Review and analysis of longitudinal and cross-sectional study data.
    • Comparative analysis of gonial angle measurements over time and across different states of dentition.

  • Statistical evaluation of age and edentulism as factors influencing gonial angle.

    • Main Results:

    • Longitudinal studies contradict the notion that the gonial angle consistently increases with age or tooth loss.
    • Evidence suggests the gonial angle can exhibit both enlargement and reduction.
    • Age and edentulism are not the sole determinants of gonial angle changes.

    Conclusions:

    • The gonial angle's variability is multifactorial, not solely dictated by aging and edentulism.
    • A dynamic model is proposed, acknowledging potential enlargement or reduction.
    • Further research should explore other contributing factors to gonial angle morphology.
