A comparative study between two randomly selected samples from which to derive standards for craniofacial measurements.

Abstract

The present study was performed to derive cephalometric standards for Saudi Arabian boys aged from 9-12 years. The sample was then compared with a British sample aged 9-12 years to detect statistical differences. The differences between both samples demonstrated a slightly prognathic Saudi face, more protrusive upper and lower incisors, and low Gonial and saddle angles.
