  ABSTRACT: Materials and Methods:The authors conducted a review of the literature around the theme, determinants of the choice of the width of the upper central incisor (WUCI), through search web including Pub Med, Inari and Google.Fifteen of the most recent publications since 2005 have been selected from twenty publications. Sample size (n), age range (AR), average bi zygomatic distance (BZD), choice determinants, type of study, and mathematical formula between WUCI and BZD were the study’s interest variables.Sociodemographic characteristics, facial anatomical marksand the size of the patient’s teeth for anterosuperior were the main factors to be assessed.Results:Out of 22 included articles, the Asian continent represents 59% in which India is the leading country with 27.3% followedby American 22.8%. The most Determinants choice for the width upper central incisor in craniofacial and anterior teeth method from the published papers were BZD (100%; n=22) and WUCI (81.8%; n=18). Conclusion:Application of mathematical formulation maybe help to predict the exact width of the upper central incisor.
