HI! MY NAME IS NOAH.

HI! MY NAME IS NOAH.

Point A revisited – Jacobson
Point A cannot be accurately identified in all cephalometric
radiographs.. In instances where this landmark is not clearly
discernible, an alternative means of estimating the anterior
extremity of the maxillary base is shown.
Procedure;
A point plotted 3.0 mm. labial to a point between the upper
third and lower two thirds of the long axis of the root of the
maxillary central incisor was found to be a suitable point -
(estimated point A) through which to draw the NAE line and
one which most closely approximates the true NA plane.

The goal is to compare the patient with a normal reference group, so that
differences between the patient’s actual dentofacial relationships and those
expected for his/her racial or ethnic groups are revealed.
CEPHALOMETRIC ANALYSIS
Evaluates the relationship both horizontally and vertically.
Cranium and cranial base
Skeletal maxilla
Maxillary dentition and alveolar process
Skeletal mandible
Mandibular dentition and alveolar process

DOWNS ANALYSIS
Considers Frankfort horizontal plane as reference plane.
20 white subjects( 12-17 yrs)
Boys and Girls are 1:1 ratio.
All individuals having excellent occlusion.
Down redused his observation to the following four basic facial types:

2. ANGLE OF CONVEXITY
3. A-B PLANE ANGLE

FACIAL ANGLE
To measure , the degree
of retrusion or protrusion
of lower jaw.
Facial line (N-Pog)
intersect the F-H Plane.
Mean – 87.8⁰
Range – 82-95⁰
Angle – Prominent chin
Angle– Retrusive chin

ANGLE OF FACIAL CONVEXITY:
By the intersection of line from
Nasion to Point A and line from
Point A to Pogonion.
Revels the convexity or
concavity of the skeletal
profile.
Positive Angle – Convex profile
– Class II
Negative Angle – Concave
profile – Class III
Mean – 0⁰
Range – -8.5⁰ to +10⁰

A-B PLANE ANGLE:
Formed by line joining Point
A to Point B AND line joining
Nasion to Pogonion.
Indicative of Maxillo-
Mandibular relationship in
relation to Facial plane.
Mean - -4.6⁰
Range – 0 to -9⁰.
Large –ve angle – Class II
Positive angle – Class III

MANDIBULAR PLANE ANGLE:
Formed by the line
joining tangent to lower
border of mandible to F-
H Plane.
Mean – 21.9⁰
Range – 17 to 28⁰
Increased angle-
Unfavorable growth
pattern which
complicates the
treatment and prognosis.

Y (GROWTH) AXIS:
Formed by the line joining
Sella to Gnathion and F-H
Plane.
Larger angle- ClassII
tendency and vertical
growth pattern.
Smaller angle- ClassIII
tendency and horizontal
growth pattern.
Mean – 59.4⁰
Range – 53-66⁰

DENTAL PATTERN:
1. CANT OF OCCLUSAL PLANE
2. INTERINCISAL ANGLE
3. INCISOR OCCLUSAL PLANE ANGLE
4. INCISOR MANDIBULAR PLANE ANGLE
5. PROTRUSION OF INCISORS

CANT OF OCCLUSAL PLANE:
Here Occlusal plane is the
line bisecting overlapping
cusps of first molar and
incisal overbite.
Angle between Occlusal
plane and F-H Plane.
Mean - +9.3⁰
Range - +1.5⁰ to +14⁰

INTERINCISAL ANGLE:
Line passing through incisal
edge and apex of root of
maxillary and mandibular
incisors.
Mean – 135.4⁰
Range – 130 to 150⁰
Small angle- Proclined
incisors
Large angle- Retroclined
incisors.

INCISOR-OCCLUSAL
PLANEANGLE:
Relates lower incisor to
their functioning occlusal
plane.
Mean – +14.5⁰
Range - +3.5 to +20⁰
Positive angle-proclined
incisors.
Negetive angle-
Retroclined incisors

INCISOR MANDIBULAR
PLANEANGLE:
Formed by the
intersection of
Mandibular Plane to
Long axis of lower
incisor.
Mean – 1.4⁰
Range - -8.5 to +7⁰
Positive angle- Proclined
incisor
Negetive angle-
Retroclined incisor

PROTRUSION OF
MAXILLARYINCISORS:
It is the linear measurement
between the incisal edge of the
maxillary central incisor and line
joining Point A and Pogonion.
Mean – +2.7mm
Range – -1.0 to +5mm
Reading is negative if incisal
edge lies behind line and
positive if it is front.

WITTS APPRAISAL:
In the Witts appraisal, Points
A and B are projected to the
functional occlusal plane,
which is drawn through the
posterior teeth. Then A-B
difference is measured. In well
proportioned faces, the A-B
difference is -1mm for men
and is 0mm for women.

WHAT’S HAPPENING HERE ?

Method of superimposing radiographs
Superimposing on a stable
plane or structure
Registration on a stable
landmark

Methods of assessing Dentofacial
changes
Color coding of
consecutive
cephalograms
suggested by ABO:
Pretreatment – black
Progress – blue
End of treatment – red
Retention - green

Need for Cephalometric superimposition
Evaluate a patient’s growth pattern at different
ages
To evaluate changes in basal and dentoalveolar
relationships after treatment
To quantify growth and treatment changes in
dento-alveolar and basal relationships.

LIMITATIONS OF RADIOGRAPHIC

1.It gives two dimensional view of a three dimensional object.
2.The reliability of cephalometrics is not always accurate.
3.Standardization of analytical procedures are difficult.
4.Growth pattern not taken into consideration
5.Mean values are based on different population
