Several studies reported an increase in far IPD with age in both males and females.7,10,13,15 Fesharaki et al. reported that mean IPD increased 4.8 mm during the second decade, 1.7 mm during the third decade, and 0.6 mm during the fourth and fifth decades of life.1 Osuobeni and al-Musa reported that the average IPD of the male children (between 5 and 15 years of age) was greater than females (between 7 and 15 years of age), but the increase in IPD was faster in female children than males.10 They demonstrated that IPD increases faster in males after 16 years of age. Evereklioğlu et al. found that there was a significant increase in IPD measurements with age until 19 years in males and 14 years in females.18 This difference may be due to the earlier maturation of females than males.
