Abstract
A correlation was established among the circumferential measurements of the teeth in a given individual. The maxillary central incisor was selected as the predictor tooth to predict the remaining teeth in the set. The circumferences of the teeth were predicted within + two band sizes 69% of the time. Agreement in prediction percentages was found using measurements taken intraorally.
