Introduction: Information is lacking on correlation between lip form and incisal display with lips in repose. The purpose of this study was to evaluate correlation between lip form (according to a new classification given by Kim et al in 2017) and incisal display with lips in repose in young Indian population. Also to find most common type of Lip form present in young adults.
Methodology: A total of 200 young voluntary subjects between age group 18-30 years were chosen randomly for the study. Facial photographic records were taken with lips in repose. Incisal display was measured manually by using digital Vernier calliper. Then type of lip form was classified using Image J software and also incisal display was measured digitally by the same software.
Result: Out of 200 samples, 44 were males and 156 were females. The most common type of lip form was straight followed by moderate and high lip forms. The average incisal display in mm was 3.545 in females and 2.473 in males. A statistically significant difference was found between incisal display and lip form in female candidates.
Conclusion: Most common type of lip form reported in young Indian population is straight lip form. Lip form can be used to determine incisal display in anterior restorations/prostheses.
