Influence of lateral cephalometric radiography in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning

Abstract: The results of our study suggest that the majority of Portuguese orthodontists judge that LCR is important to producing a treatment plan. Despite that, it does not seem to have an influence on orthodontic treatment planning.

“…This study selected 10 experienced raters from the 16 used in the study by Reis et al, 11 and employed both facial images and lateral view cephalometric radiographs. However, the reproducibility of experienced raters also showed moderate Kappa index values, which indicated the important role of the soft tissue criterion in classifying facial pattern and little influence of lateral radiograph in orthodontic diagnosis, which is in accordance with Durão et al 13 …”

“…The role of cephalometry within orthodontics has been brought into sharper focus in recent years with some evidence that its influence on treatment planning decisions is declining . This may relate simply to emphasis being placed on clinical rather than radiographic findings, or to issues emanating from problems with measurement error .…”

“…Devereux et al 6 conducted a study in 2011 using 199 orthodontists and six patient cases and found that, for all patients but one, the lateral cephalometric image did not have a significant impact on treatment. Most recently, Durao et al 7 conducted a study in Portugal using 10 orthodontists and 43 patients that found that the majority of the orthodontists felt that using the lateral cephalometric image was key for proper diagnosis but the results seemed to indicate the contrary. The uncertainty surrounding the issue indicated that further research on the utility of the lateral cephalometric radiograph would be beneficial.…”
