0. Acceptable Occlusion
1. Anterior Cross Bite
Assessment of crowding The widths of all the teeth anterior to the molars are measured and subtracted from the sum of two measurements (mesial of the lower incisor to the distal of the lower canine, plus distal of lower canine to the mesial of the first molar) to give the degree of crowding. (D. Roberts-Harry and J. Sandy British Dental Journal (2003); 195, 563-565).
