The dental models of seventy-seven orthodontically treated patients were evaluated to determine the contribution of lower incisor tooth dimensions to their alignment many years after treatment. Tooth dimensions included the maximum mesiodistal (MD) and faciolingual (FL) dimensions and the shape ratio represented by MD/FL. Incisor alignment was assessed by means of Little's irregularity index, and all measurements were recorded to the nearest 0.1 mm with modified dial calipers. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the total contribution of all these lower incisor dimensions accounted for only 7.4% of the variability in their alignment, which was not statistically significant. A similar lack of association between lower incisor tooth dimensions and their alignment was found in a sample of eighty-six adults with untreated malocclusions. It therefore appears that the size and shape of the lower incisors do not significantly contribute to their alignment many years after orthodontic treatment.
