craniometry
|
study facial growth using skulls of human remains
uses cross sectional method |
|
anthropometry
|
study facial growth on living people using calipers
uses both longitudinal and cross sectional methods looks at same skeltal landmarks as craniometry but also looks at soft tissue |
|

|
|
2 types of cephs
|
lateral
PA |
|
Advantages of cephlometry
|
combines both anthropometry and craniometry
|
|
disadvantage of cephalometry
|
it is 2D so you must combine the lat and PA ceph
|
|
color codes and purpose
|
different colors are used to assess growth changes
black-prior to Tx (T1) Blue-progress Red-right after finishing Tx Green-recall (T3) |
|
how to manage double images while tracing
|
with double images, the left side is closer to the film, therefore,there is less magnification and more accuracy on the L side.

|
advantage of vital staining
|
give something to growing bone undergoing remodeling and depending on how much changing is going on the stain goes to where the remodeling is occouring
|

|
|
who obtained the first xray films of skull by lateral view?

Racini and Carrera
in 1926 |
|
who invented the cephalometer?
|
Broadbend in 1931
allowed practioner to ID problem areas of craniofacial disproportion and devise detailed therapeutic interventions |
|
what does cephalometrics permit?
|
observation of discrepancies in mandible, maxilla, dental units, and soft tissue profile
|
|
primary aim of cephalometric analysis
|
to localize malocclusion within a tracing of facial bone and soft tissue structures.
the analysis is done by using standardized cephalometric landmarks to construct lines, angles, and imaginery planes which allow linear and angular assesment of dental and facial relationships seen on radiograph |
|
class I
|
mesiobuccal cusp tip of max first molar align w/buccal groove of man first molar
Class I occlusion demonstrates reasonably normal skeletal and soft tissue profiles |
|
