Orthodontists can detect 5° of tooth rotation or tip, but need 6° for buccolingual inclination (torque). These findings help achieve optimal esthetic outcomes in dental treatments.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Orthodontics
  • Dental Aesthetics

Background:

  • Accurate tooth positioning is crucial for optimal esthetic and functional outcomes in orthodontics.
  • Quantifying the human eye's ability to perceive minor tooth misalignments is essential for setting treatment goals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantify the minimum perceptible degrees of rotation, buccolingual inclination (torque), and mesiodistal angulation (tip) of anterior teeth.

Main Methods:

  • Digital dental models were manipulated to simulate controlled angular movements (rotation, tip, torque) of anterior teeth.
  • Orthodontists evaluated paired images to identify perceived discrepancies in tooth position.

Main Results:

  • High perceptual sensitivity was observed for all movements.

  • Rotational and tip discrepancies of 5° were consistently detected.
  • Buccolingual inclination (torque) detection was lower at 3°, improving significantly at higher degrees.

    • Conclusions:

    • Quantitative perceptual thresholds for angular deviations in anterior teeth were established.
    • Maxillary central incisors showed the highest detection rates.
    • Findings are relevant for achieving optimal esthetic outcomes in orthodontic treatment.
