Background: Craniofacial anthropometry deals with the dimensions of head and face. Based on these measurements race and sex can be determined. Objective: To correlate the concurrence of the head and facial type, and to determine the predominant head and facial type in males and females from southern parts of India. Materials and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted among medical students in a Medical College Puducherry, India. A total of 195 subjects (105 males and 90 females), above 18 years were studied. Cephalic and facial indices of all the subjects were analyzed based on Martin & Saller method. Results: There is no correlation between head types and facial types. However, Mesocephalic/medium head type was predominant in both males (44.76%) and females(48.89%) type. In the case of facial types, leptoprosopic/narrow face (30.48%) in males and hyper leptoprosopic/very narrow face (35.56%) was the most predominant in females. Conclusion: This study not only appreciated the prevalence of the cephalic and facial phenotypes but also found the concurrence of both these phenotypes in males © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
