“…For proper planning and execution of these, various diagnostic A thorough search of literature revealed difference in cephalometric values of dentofacial relationships of various ethnic groups [4,5]. We conducted a study to know if there were any similarities or differences in cephalometric values of north Indian adults with class I occlusion and …”

Primary Aim To establish the cephalometric standards for hard and soft tissues of the facial skeleton for north Indian population. Methods The sample comprised of lateral cephalograms taken in natural head position of 100 participants (50 men, 50 women). The cephalograms were traced, analyzed and interpreted using the landmarks and values given by Burstone's analysis for hard tissue and Legan and Burstone analysis for soft tissue respectively. The Student's t test, standard deviation and mean deviation were calculated to compare between the groups. Results Statistically significant results were found in various parameters between intra and inter group comparison. Conclusion The results obtained in the north Indian population can be used as cephalometric norms for orthognathic surgery.

[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] However, there are very little cephalometric norms available for Nepalese population. In 2005, Bhattarai 2 conducted a cephalometric study on Nepalese population using Steiners analysis.…”

A total of 100 lateral cephalograms of the Nepalese adults between the ages of 17 to 30 years were selected from various institutions, communities in Nepal. Cephalograms were traced and measured according to Tweeds descriptions. The results of the study were compared with Caucasians norms established by Tweed. No statistically significant difference between the Nepalese males and females were observed. However, the values were significantly different between Nepalese and Caucasian samples. The mean values for the Nepalese groups were within the range of Tweeds reference values. The results of the study will be useful in the diagnosis and treatment planning of the Nepalese patients.

“…Cephalometric comparisons of the dentofacial relationships of two adolescent populations from Iowa and Northern Mexico was done by Samir E. Bishara, and Arturo Garcia Fernandez, found significant differences between boys and girls within each population in the skeletal linear parameters of both the anterior and posterior face heights. 11,15 Cephalometric evaluation of Iranian children and its comparison with Tweed's and Steiner's standards was done by Mohammad Hajighadimi., Harry L. Dougherty, and Farimah Garakani, 16,17 skeletally; there were no significant differences between Iranian girls and boys. However, in the male group the dentition was more procumbent than in the female group.…”

Objective: The objective of this study was to establish cephalometric norms of Bangladeshi children age range (10-13years) and to compare it with accepted standards for the Caucasian population according to Steiner analysis. Methods: Fifty healthy Bangladeshi children both male and female, with a mean age of 12.3 years, were selected from different schools of Dhaka. Selection was made on the basis of normal occlusion, balanced and pleasing profile with no obvious facial asymmetry. None of the children have undergone orthodontic treatment prior to this study. Lateral skull cephalograms were taken and traced using a standardized technique. Each cephalogram was traced twice with a one week interval by the authors. All angular and linear measurements were calculated to the nearest 0.5 degree and 0.5 mm, respectively. Steiner's method of cephalometric analysis was used to establish cephalometric norms. Results: A comparison of the results with the Steiner standards showed that the Bangladeshi children were more protrusive skeletally and dentally with a greater tendency towards bimaxillary protrusion. Further, there was a decrease in the lower facial height. Conclusion:The results of the study support the fact that norms and standards of one racial group could not be used without modification for other racial group and each different racial group would have to be treated according to its individual characteristics.
