Cephalometric analysis is the clinical application of cephalometry. It is analysis of the dental and skeletal relationships of a human skull. [ 1 ] It is frequently used by dentists, orthodontists , and oral and maxillofacial surgeons as a treatment planning tool. [ 2 ]

2023年7月17日 · Cephalometric analysis evaluates lateral skull radiographs obtained with a cephalostat to determine skeletal patterns and assess treatment complexity. This technique is specifically indicated for cases involving planned anteroposterior movements but is not necessary for all orthodontic treatments.

Cephalometric analysis involves several angular and linear measurements to assess craniofacial structures, relationships, and growth patterns. The values for these measurements may vary slightly based on population, age, and sex.

The aim of this study was to assess the reliability and reproducibility of angular and linear measurements of conventional and digital cephalometric methods. A total of 13 landmarks and 16 skeletal and dental parameters were defined and measured on ...

This study focused on the investigation of the relationship between craniofacial measurements obtained from cephalometric radiographs and analogous measurements from standardized facial profile photographs by means of regression prediction models.

Cephalometric radiography is a type of X-ray imaging that offers a lateral or side view of the face, revealing the bones and facial contours in relation to the teeth. This imaging technique is indispensable in orthodontics for analyzing skeletal relationships, planning treatments, and tracking changes over time.

The conventional cephalometric measurement is done by either tracing radiographic landmarks or measuring linear or angular values or by directly measuring specific landmarks on the facial soft tissue.

This study aims to compare various cephalometric measurements and show the relationships between beta, W and Yen angles and the sagittal dimension of the maxilla and mandible in individuals with different vertical facial growth types.

A cephalometric analysis is performed to determine if abnormal skeletal relationships between the facial components exist. These are correlated with the physical examination findings and the patient's desires. All cephalometric analyses have limitations, and this must be kept in mind.
