Thank you for your comments regarding our recent article titled “The Human Arch Form.” I do want you to know that I, and I believe the profession, should be grateful for your astute observations. It is also nice to know that someone actually reads the articles! Your observations are valid. The mandibular and maxillary arch headings in Tables 1, 2, and 3 are reversed (maxillary arch should be substituted for mandibular arch, and vice versa). The constants were also mixed up as a result. Somehow, these errors escaped detection in reviewing the original manuscripts and the galley proofs. Revised Tables 1, 2, and 3, Figures 4 through 7, and the mean equations of the Class I, II, and III dental arch shapes are attached.

Dr Noroozi, I am indebted to you for your observations. It is important that the data be presented correctly. Best regards.
