The purpose of this research was to compare the Real vertical occlusal dimension (RVOD) with the measurements obtained by the Willis and McGee methods and the Resting Position Method, all this in the same participant to determine which of these methods is the most accurate. The study was carried out in a sample of 120 sub-officers of the Quispicanchis police station, the research was of a correlational, quantitative, cross-sectional type. The participants were randomly selected, aged between 20 and 30 years, with permanent dentition, without previous or current orthodontic treatment, and not wearing fixed or removable prosthesis. A digital vernier was used to measure the Real Vertical Occlusal Dimension, the Willis Compass to find the distance between the external commissure of the eye and the labial commissure, the digital vernier to take the Glabella-Subnasal, pupil, and dividing line of the lips, and the Inter commissural-lip distance along the perimeter and then divide them by 3, and a metallic ruler to obtain the subnasalchin distance in resting position and subtract 3 mm. The results obtained were the True Vertical Occlusal Dimension had a mean of 66.86, with the Willis method a mean of 66.98 mm, McGee's method a mean of 65.35 mm, and the Resting Position method a mean of 68.49. The Willis method demonstrated a higher degree of accuracy about the actual occlusal vertical dimension compared to the McGee method and the Resting Position method.
