The presence of proportionate teeth size in either arch is a must to obtain an ideal occlusion with good alignment, ideal overjet, ideal overbite and Class I molar relationship. The above facts made us think and to know if this proportion between maxillary and mandibular teeth existed in artificial teeth also? Hence, a survey is undertaken to study the tooth size relation in commercially available artificial teeth. From the results of the present study it was concluded that the anterior and the overall ratios are slightly varied when compared to the standard Bolton’s ratios. On comparison the difference between the study ratios and the standard Bolton’s ratios were not statistically significant.
