Abstract
Mandibular arch widths and ratios are computed for unilateral cleft patients. The mandibular dental arch dimensions in unilateral cleft are different from that of the normals. Studies were made on the arch widths of normals of our population, but the arch dimensions of the cleft patients are not that widely studied. The mandibular dental arch dimensions in unilateral cleft are not different from that of the normals. The average MD33/MD44 and MD33/MD66 ratios among males and the normals showed a statistically significant difference (p<.05). The average MD33/MD44 ratio among females of the cleft and the normals also showed a statistically significant difference (p<.05). The parameters in the study did not show any statistically significant difference between the males and females among the cleft. There was significant difference between males of the cleft and the normal populations in (MD66). The long term stabilityof treatment results in cleft palate patients is to be taken up for further research
