The purpose of this study was to establish floating cephalometric norms for the description of the individual skeletal pattern in Czech adults. Floating norms provide a method of analysis that uses the variability of the associations among suitable cephalometric measures, on the basis of the regression model combining both sagittal and vertical skeletal p...

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of cephalometric prediction tracings—performed for orthognathic surgery—by means of the cephalometric analysis of preoperative and seven-day postoperative tracings, in patients subjected to correction of mandibular deformities. Methods: The lateral cephalograms of 17 patients who had been submitted to mandibular orthognathic surger...

The aim of the present study was to compare the treatment plan outlined from the diagnosis obtained by two different cephalometric analyses with the clinical decision made for surgical treatment of patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion. For this purpose, 82 skeletal Class III patients were evaluated, divided into three groups according to the surgical procedure performed for dentofacial...

The aim of this controlled trial was to identify and quantify skeletal, soft tissue and dental changes during treatment, and immediately post-treatment with Twin Block (TB) or Dynamax appliance using the techniques of three-dimensional (3D)optical surface laser scanning, cephalometric, and clinical measurements. Sixty-two Caucasian subjects, 36 males aged 11-14 years and 26 females aged 10-13 y...

similar, and there was a tendency toward dental protrusion in the Egyptian groups [11]. Hassan evaluated the cephalometric features of a Saudi population living in the western area of Saudi Arabia and revealed distinct cephalometric features in the Saudis [12]. In their studies on Anatolian Turkish adults who are considered part of the Mediterranean population, Basciftci et al. established ceph...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between 2-dimensional (2D) cephalometric measurement and 3-dimensional (3D) cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) measurement, and to evaluate the availability of 3D analysis for asymmetry patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of Twenty-seven patients were evaluated for facial asymmetry by photograph and cephalometric radiogr...

OBJECTIVES Cephalometric norms of McNamara analysis have been studied in various populations due to their optimal efficiency. Dolphin cephalometric software greatly enhances the conduction of this analysis for orthodontic measurements. However, Dolphin is very expensive and cannot be afforded by many clinicians in developing countries. A suitable alternative software program in Farsi/English wi...
