    This paper describes a cephalometric analysis method used by the author to evaluate and plan treatment for orthodontic and orthognathic surgery patients. The analysis relates the positions of the maxilla and mandible to cranial structures and each other on a single film. It provides criteria for evaluating the anteroposterior and vertical positions of the upper and lower incisors. Standards are documented for each measure. The analysis of serial films is also considered, and a step-by-step outline of the cephalometric procedure is presented.

    Abstract
    This paper describes a method of cephalometric analysis which is currently used
    by the author in the evaluation and treatment planning of orthodontic and
    orthognathic surgery patients. In the analysis of a single film, the positions of the
    maxilla and mandible are related to cranial structures and to each other. Criteria
    for evaluation of the anteroposterior and vertical positions of the upper and lower
    incisors are provided, as is the documentation of the standards for each of the
    measures. In addition, the analysis of serial films is considered and a step-by-step
    outline of the cephalometric procedure is presented.
