Abstract
The clinicians face problems while recording the vertical dimension at rest. This study was conducted to compare the phonetic and swallowing methods to determine VDR. 10were dentulous and 10 were edentulous. The mean value of VDR in dentate subjects by phonetic method is 71.7mm with standard deviation of 3.40 while as by swallowing method is 69.3mm with standard deviation of 1.49. The two tailed p- value equals 0.054.

The two tailed p- value equals 0.054.
The mean value of VDR in edentulous subjects by phonetic method is 66.6mm with standard deviation of 2.07 while as by swallowing method is 63mm with standard deviation of 1.70. The two tailed p- value equals 0.0005.
The VDR as determined by both methods was similar in dentulous subjects.
In edentulous subjects the difference in the VDR as determined with two methods was statistically significant.
