Anthropometric measurements on the face can be used as a guide in selecting proper sized anterior teeth. The relationship between the intermedial canthus width (MCW) and the width of the two maxillary central incisors has been reported to be in the golden proportion given by Levin in 1978. The formula used was CW = (MCW__ampersandsigntimes;0.618)/2 where CW is the width of the maxillary central incisor. Materials and Method: In this study, the following anthropometric measurements were performed using a digital vernier caliper: CW which is the mesiodistal width of the maxillary central incisor and MCW which is the distance between the right and left medial canthus. The differences and variables were studied by sex and the differences in the expected mesiodistal width of the central incisor by (MCW__ampersandsigntimes;0.618)/2 with the real value were evaluated. The values were evaluated using the one way ANOVA test with Post Hoc ANOVA test __ampersandsignamp; unpaired t-test. Results: There was a significant correlation between the width of the central incisor (CW) and the calculated width of the central incisor (CW2) in males in the local population where the P-value is 0.047. There was no significant correlation between the width of the central incisor (CW) and the calculated width of the central incisor (CW2) in females where the P-value is 0.062. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, the following conclusions were drawn __ampersandsignndash; There was a significant correlation found between intermedial canthal width with maxillary central incisor in males in the local population. Inter medial canthal width, when multiplied by a decreasing function value of geometric progression term 0.618 and divided by 2, was a reliable predictor of maxillary central incisor width in males in the local population.&#13;
