A Study Of Treatment And Cephalometric Variables In Relation To Facial Axis Change During Treatment In A Dolichofacial Sample, Laurence A. Seifert

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The change in the facial axis in a sample of fifth-three dolichofacial patients, was compared with a number of pretreatment cephalometric variables. A number of treatment variables were also compared with the amount of facial axis change that occurred during orthodontic treatment.

The cephalometric variables measured were:

  1. Facial axis
  2. Upper face height (maxillary height)
  3. Lower face height
  4. Posterior face height
  5. Mandibular arc
  6. Palatal-mandibular plane
  7. Palatal-occlusal plane
  8. Occlusal-mandibular plane
  9. Overbite
  10. Upper first molar to palatal plane
  11. Lower first molar to mandibular plane
  12. Lower incisor to mandibular plane
  13. Incisal edge of lower incisor to mandibular plane
  14. Xi point to occlusal plane
