Introduction: Thalassemia is a hereditary blood disorder that leads to moderate or severe anemia. This anemia is associated with decreasing hemoglobin levels, thus reducing the erythrocyte count to a lower than normal level. Erythrocytes with less hemoglobin are more susceptible to hemolysis, which reduces their life.
Objectives: To analyze the maxillary inter-incisor width among patients with beta thalassemia major (BTM) in the Sundanese population of Indonesia.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included patients with BTM and normal children, and used a consecutive sampling method. The participants’ maxillary impressions were molded and the inter-incisor width measured. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA and post hoc test, with P values <0.05 considered statistically significant.
Results: The average inter-incisor width was 2.90 cm in children with BTM aged 9-10 years; 2.84 cm in those aged 10-11 years; 2.87 cm in those aged 11-12 years; 2.85 cm in those aged 12-13 years; and 2.78 cm in those aged 13-14 years. The average inter-incisor width of boys was 2.90 cm, and that of girls was 2.74 cm.
Conclusion: The maxillary inter-incisor width in children with BTM was smaller than that in normal children. Among the former, the width was greater in boys than in girls.
