Abstract
Orthodontists are more critical than other groups when evaluating the misalignment of the maxillary incisors. It appears that the central incisors play a more important role than do the lateral incisors when dental crowding impacts smile esthetics. For all observer groups, it also appears that people are more sensitive to the misalignment of a single tooth than they are to the same level of crowding distributed over multiple teeth.
