Abstract: Objective: To investigate the incisors alveolar morphology in patients with different kinds of malocclusion using CBCT data. Methods: According to inclusion criteria, 95 adult patients were included, examined, and classified. The incisors alveolar bone vertical height and thickness were measured and compared with CBCT. Results:As to alveolar height, the labial vertical height of maxillary incisors of Class III was the least (P<0.05), and the palatal vertical height of maxillary incisors and the lingual vertical height of mandibular incisors of Class II were the most (P<0.05). As to alveolar thickness, there were 5 smallest values in Class III, 3 biggest values in Class I and 2 biggest values in Class II (P<0.05). Conclusion: The incisors alveolar morphologies in malocclusion patients were different.
