Men had larger face and central maxillary incisors&#8217; dimensions than women (p<0, 01), except for the maxillary central incisor&#8217; s cervical width (p>0, 05). 3. Dimensions of the face length did not surpass &plusmn ; ; 6% between gender, dimensions of the face width did not surpass &plusmn ; ; 5%, dimensions of the maxillary central incisor width at the contact point level did not surpass &plusmn ; ; 3% and dimensions of the maxillary central incisor width at the incisal edge did not surpass &plusmn ; ; 4% between men and women
