Abstract
Morphometry is a quantitative approach to find information in relation to variations and changes in the forms of organisms. Morphometry described the relationship between human body and disease. Scientists of all civilization, who existed until today, examined the human body using various anthropometric methods. Anthropometry is a branch of morphometry to study the size and shape of the components of biological forms and their variations in the populations. The field has developed rapidly over last decades. Morphometric measurements are used in the fields of medicine for diagnosis, treatment planning and treatment of the disease. Anthropometric measurements also became popular in the field of dentistry due to its advantages like simple, non invasive, easy to use, quickly, no radiation, no need of special instrumentation, etc. So, this review presents currently available various techniques for recording vertical dimension at occlusion and provide directions for future research.
