Sexual dimorphism of canine volume: A pilot study

Highlights • Canine volume amounted in mean to 0.745 cm3 (SD 0.126 cm3 ) in males, 0.551 cm3 (SD 0.130 cm3 ) in females. • Difference between males and females was statistically significant ( p < 0.01). • A diagnostic threshold of 0.619 cm3 was stated, which provides a percentage of correct answe...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Canine volume amounted in mean to 0.745 cm3 (SD 0.126 cm3 ) in males, 0.551 cm3 (SD 0.130 cm3 ) in females. • Difference between males and females was statistically significant ( p < 0.01). • A diagnostic threshold of 0.619 cm3 was stated, which provides a percentage of correct answer of 80.5% in the chosen sample. • The novel method was then applied to 7 archaelogical canines: in all the cases the threshold was able to correctly assess the sex of the seven subjects. • The study adds a contribution to the wide analysis of dental sexual dimorphism.
