TLDR
The result implies that thumb length can be used as an adjunct for establishing OVD in the edentulous patients within the limitations of the present study.Abstract:
Background
Establishment of proper occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) is one of the important tasks for successful prosthodontic therapy. An ideal method for determining OVD in terms of cost, time, and instrument requirements has been sought in prosthodontics by various investigators. However, no such single method has been formulated. In the current anthropometric study, the relationship of the length of the thumb to the OVD was tested in two ethnic groups of Nepal, Aryans, and Mongoloids. The result of this study can be useful in determining proper OVD in edentulous patients.read more

TL;DR: There is no single accurate method for OVD determination and to overcome the limitations of the techniques, the clinician will benefit from applying combination of techniques to approximate the OVD.

TL;DR: Being simple and non-invasive technique, craniofacial measurements and linear equations could be routinely utilised to determine VDO.
comparative evaluation of the inter occlusaldistance and closest speaking space in different angles occlusion classes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined IOD in different-occlusion-classes in Iranian population and found that IOD may be different in Angle class I, II, and III.

TL;DR: There was an overall positive correlation between TL and VDR in patients with and without orthodontic treatment and the regression equations presented in this article could help clinicians in their clinical practice and researchers to conduct future trials.

The speaking method in measuring vertical dimension
TL;DR: The measurement of vertical dimension by use of the speaking method with its closest speaking space has been found in my experience to be the missing link in successful full denture construction and will prove most valuable to dentists doing occlusal reconstruction and to periodontists in the treatment of their patients.
