Over the last two decades, the United Kingdom has seen an increase in the number of immigrants from the Indian subcontinent, mainly Pakistan. The amount of information that is available regarding parameters such as mesiodistal crown diameters and dental arch dimensions is, however, somewhat limited for this population. An investigation was carried out to compare corresponding mesiodistal crown diameters and arch dimensions between samples of the indigenous British population in Leeds (England) and the Pakistani immigrant population living in Rochdale (England). Measurements were taken from dental casts. The results showed that there were no significant differences between the two ethnic groups in corresponding mesiodistal crown diameters or arch dimensions. Data are provided for the Pakistani immigrant population in Britain
