Prosthodontics patients are generally considered a high risk group due to their potential to transmit infectious diseases 3 as well as to acquire them as more than 60% of prosthesis delivered to clinics from laboratories are contaminated with pathogenic microbes originating 4 in the oral cavity of patients. Infection control is defined as "Measures taken by the health care personnel to reduce the risks of transmission of infectious agents to patients and employees". Implementation of standard precautions in dental institutes is most effective way to control cross-infection as dental students are involved in direct patient treatment as part of clinical 5 training. Wearing gloves, masks, protective eye wear, white coats, use of sterile instruments, washing hands before and after changing the gloves, vaccination,

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Orthodontics Department of Armed Forces Institute of Dentistry (AFID) Rawalpindi, Pakistan. This was conducted from January 2020 to December 2021 and included mixed dentition subjects’ casts. Mesiodistal widths (MDW) of the permanent dentition were estimated and contrasted with the anticipated values that emerged from the Moyer’s mixed dentition examination. Students t-test, simple linear regression and Pearson correlation coefficient examination were utilized for statistical correlation. All data was gathered utilizing an electronic digital caliper and further investigated through IBM SPSS Statistics 24. Results: Dental casts of the 258 subjects, 106 (41%) males and 152 (58.9%) females with the ages ranging 15.825±2.95 years were analyzed. Tooth size...
