Abstract:
1. A method for designing an improved dentition of a patient, comprising the steps of: a) inputting a value representative of a number of visible teeth on each side of the patient's actual dentition; b) inputting a value representative of an inter-molar distance of the patient's actual dentition and a value representative of the patient's actual central incisor width; and c) computing position of teeth of the improved dentition by applying a bilateral mathematical function to the value representative of the number of visible teeth on each side of the dentition, the value representative of the central incisor width and the value representative of the actual inter-molar distance; wherein the bilateral mathematical function is based on a modified Golden Proportion with a variable ratio of 1:1.367 in a range between 1:1.200 and 1:1.618.
