Cephalometry and cephalometric analysis
For general practitioners
Prepared by
Dr M. Alruby
The assessment of cranio- facial structures forms a part of orthodontic diagnosis. The discovery of X-rays in 1895 by Roentgen revolutionized dentistry. It provided a method of obtaining the inner cranio – facial measurements with quite a bite of accuracy and reproducibility. In 1922 Paccini standardized the radiographic head images by positioning the subjects against a film cassette at a distance of 2 meters from the X-ray tube. In 1931 Broadbent in USA and Hofrath in Germany simultaneously presented a standardized cephalometric technique using a high powered X-ray machine and head holder called cephalostat. The term cephalometrics is used to describe the analysis and measurements made on the cephalometric radiographs.
Cephalogram: standardized radiograph of the head and face
Standardization:
= presence of head orientation for all subjects and for the same subject in the serial studies. =The target film distance was 60 inches= 5 feet = 180 cm.
=from film to midsagittal plane= 15 cm.
= the exposure time varies according to the age of the patient and usually from 1/2 to 3/4 second.
Important of standardization:
1-Make it possible to study facial growth by taking a serial radiographs in a standard manner, thus any changes incorporated by growth can be detected.
2-Make it possible to localize the disease and the site of dentofacial deformities.
3-Comparisons of cephalograms before and after treatment thus the changes due to treatment can be detected.
Uses of cephalometrics in orthodontics:
1-Classification of dental and skeletal abnormalities.
2-growth studies.
3-Aids in treatment planning.
4-Evaluation of effectiveness of various orthodontic procedures.
5-Evaluation of effectiveness of retention.
6-Evaluation of growth changes after treatment was completed.
Limitation, disadvantage of cephalometric:
1-It is two dimensional representations for three dimensional structures.
2-Superimpostion.
3-Degree of reliability of landmark as measuring points is still uncertain.
4-Locate the site of discrepancy but do not reveal the basic etiologic factors.
5-Magnification, Distortion and Blurring.
Magnification:
Proportional enlargement of all parts of structure in the Cephalometry. This error occurs because the X-ray beams are not parallel with all points of the object. We can minimize this error by using a long focus- object distance and a short film – object distance and by use of angular rather than linear measurements.
Distortion:
Lack of exact reproduction of a structure in the term of proportion. Magnification occurs when all parts of structure are increase proportionally, while in distortion, the different parts of structure are not increase proportionally. In lateral film, the only structure that not distorted are those situated on the midsagittal plane (midline structure) while, all other bilat

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. • The Assessment of cranio-facial structure forms a
part of orthodontic diagnosis.
• Earliest method – artistic standards, harmony,
symmetry and beauty.
• Now, using standardized skull radiograph –
facial, dental and skeletal relationships as well as
airway analysis
Introduction
3. • Roentgen 1895 – Discover X-ray.
• Paccini 1922 – standerdized radiographic head
images at 2meterfrom X-ray tube.
• Boardbent 1931 USA & Hofrath in Germany –
standerdizzed cephalometric technique.
History
4. • CEPHLO means head , METRIC means measurement.
• Cephalometric Analysis - a collection of data intended to
compress as much of information from the cephalogram into a
usable form for diagnosis, treatment planning and/or
assessment of treatment effects.
• According to Moyer, cephalometrics is a radiographic technique
for abstracting the human head into a geometric shape.
DEFINITION
5. Types of cephalograms
1) Lateral Cephalogram
• Lateral view of skull
• X-ray beam perpendicular to the patient's sagittal plane
2) Frontal Cephalogram
• Anteroposterior view of skull
• X-ray beam perpendicular to the patient’s coronal plane
6. Uses of cephalograms
• In orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning.
– Assesment of horizontal/vertical skeletal relationship, incisor
position/inclination, soft tissue profile
– Orthognathic surgery
• Helps in classification of skeletal and dental abnormalities.
• Helps in evaluation of treatment results.
– Post-functional to assess skeletal/dental relationship
– Plan retention and monitor post retention phase
• Helps in predicting growth related changes.
• Research purpose
7. Technical Aspects
• Collimated X-ray source - 5 feet from mid-sagittal plane of patient
• Cephalostat - head positioner(with 2 ear rods and forehead clamp)
• Aluminium wedge/ Barium paste - increases soft tissue definition
• Film - placed 1.5-1.8 foot behind mid-sagittal plane of patient with
rare earth metal intensifying screen
9. Positioning of the patient
• Frankfurt Horizontal plane should
be parallel to floor.
• Ear rods stabilize the patient on the
horizontal plane.
• Forehead clamp should be fixed for
vertical plane stabilization of
patient.
• Patient is made to close the mouth
in centric occlusion.
10. Evaluation of Cephalometric Radiograph
• Digitizing
– Specialized software used to produce tracing
• Hand Tracing
– Carried out in a darkened room with (X-ray viewer)
– Acetate sheets used as transparency facilitates landmark
identification and secured using masking tape
– Sharp pencil used ( 0.3mm leaded propelling pencil)
– Bilateral landmarks, unless directly super imposed, an
average of two should be taken
12. TRACING EQUIPMENTS:
1. A lateral cephalogram, the usual dimensions of 8x10 inches.
2. Acetate matte tracing paper (0.003 inches thick, 8x10 inches).
3. A sharp 3H drawing pencil or a very fine felt-tipped pen.
4. Masking tape.
5. View box.
6. A protractor.
13. A landmark is a point serving as a guide for measurement. An ideal landmark is
located reliably on the skull and behaves consistently during growth.
The reliability (reproducibility, dependability) of a landmark is affected by:
1. The quality of the cephalogram
2. The experience of the tracer
3. Confusion with other anatomic shadows.
The validity (correctness or use as proof) of the landmark is determined largely by
the way the landmark is used.
Cephalometric Landmarks
14. Cephalometric landmarks and measure points should have the
following attributes
1. Landmarks should be easily seen, uniform in outline, easily
reproducible.
2. Lines and planes should have significant relationship to the vectors
of growth of specific areas of the skull.
3. Landmark should permit valid measurements of lines and angles
projected.
4. Measurements should be amenable to statistical analyses.
15. 1. Anatomic landmarks – actual
anatomic structure.
2. Implants
3. Derived landmarks –obtained
secondarily from anatomic structure.
a. External points
b. Intersections of edges of
regression
c. Intersections of constructed lines
POINTS AND LANDMARKS—CLASSIFIED
1. Soft tissue landmark
2. Hard tissue landmark
1. Points/landmarks
2. Planes/line
a. Horizontal plane
b. Vertical plane
16. • Implants are artificially inserted radio-opaque markers.
• They are "private points" and their position can vary.
• They may be located more precisely than traditional points and provide precise
super positioning
• Ideal for longitudinal studies on the same subject.
• Anatomic "points" are really small regions,
• Each point has its own scale and its own uncertainty in one or two dimensions.
Examples - the anterior nasal spine (ANS). Infradentale (ID) and Nasion (Na).
TRUE ANATOMIC POINTS
IMPLANTS
17. Derived or created for the purpose of comparison or calculations of the
cephalograms.
These are of the following three types.
a. External Points
• These points are extremes of curvature, e.g. incision superius (Is)
• Points whose coordinates are largest or smallest of all points on a specific
outline, (e.g. "A point", "B Point". Gnathion (Gn), or Condylion (Co)
• These points have less precision of location than true anatomic points.
Derived Points
18. b. Intersection of Edges of Regression as "Points"
• "Points" defined as the intersection of images
• For instance, articulare (Ar) and -Pterygomaxillary fissure (PTM)
• Such "points" exist only in projections and are dependent on subject
positioning.
c. Intersection of Constructed Lines
• Intersection of constructed lines are used as points.
• e.g. Gonion sometimes is defined as the intersection of the ramal and
mandibular lines.
22. SOFT TISSUE PROFILE
• G (glabella) - Most prominent point in the midsagittal plane of forehead
• ILS (inferior labial sulcus) - Point of greatest concavity in the midline of the lower lip
• Li ( labrale inferius)- Median point in the lower margin of lower membranous lip
• Ls (labrale superius)- Median point in the upper margin of the upper membranous lip
• Ms (menton soft tissue)- Constructed point of intersection of a vertical coordinate from
menton and the inferior soft tissue contour of the chin

• Sn (subnasale)- Point where the lower border of the nose meets the outer contour of
upper lip
• St (stomion)- Midpoint between stomion superioris and stomion inferius
• Sti (stomion inferius)- Highest point on lower lip
• Sts (stomion superioris)- Lowest point on upper lip.

the lower incisor teeth is determined
• Most protruding incisor to the N-B line
Normal value: 25 0
Significance:
• Shows forward or backward positioning of
these teeth.
• lower incisor to N-B in degrees indicates
their axial inclination.
50. 4. LOWER INCISOR TO N-B (linear)
Linear distance between the labial surface of lower
central incisor & line joining Naion to point B
Normal value: 4mm
Significance:
• Measurement helps in assessing the lower incisor
inclination.
• Increased in this measurement indicate proclined
lower incisors.
51. 5. INTER-INCISAL ANGLE
The relative position of the upper incisor to
that of the lower incisor.
Mean value : 1300
Significance:
• Acute or less than 130 degree- proclined.
• Greater than 130 degree/more obtuse -
retroclined.
52. THE SOFT TISSUE ANALYSIS
• The analysis laid emphasis on the soft tissue profile as well as
the underlying skeletal infrastructure.
• The profile is mainly affected by the chin, nose and the lips.
• The shape and the posture of the lips is partially governed by
the underlying dentition and thus can be modified orthodontic
ally.
53. STEINER’S S-LINE
• According to steiner, the lips in balanced
faces, should touch a line extending from
the soft tissue contour of the chin to the
middle of an S formed by the lower
border of the nose. This line is referred
to as the S-line.
Significance:
• Lips located beyond this line -protrusive.
• Lips located behind this line - concave
profile.
• Orthodontic correction of teeth or jaws
are required to approximate lips to the S-
Line.
54. TWEED ANALYSIS
• Aid to treatment planning, anchorage preparation and
determining the prognosis of orthodontic cases.
• This analysis is based primarily on the deflection of the
mandibular plane angle (FMA) and the posture of the lower
incisor.
55. • To determine the final position of lower incisors should
occupy at the end of treatment so space requirement is
calculated and decision regarding extraction is made.
• As an aid in treatment planning and anchorage preparation.
• Determining the prognosis of orthodontically treated cases.

56. DESCRIPTION
Frankfort horizontal plane
The three angles formed are:
1. Frankfort-mandibular plane
(FMA). - 250
2. Lower incisor to mandibular
plane (IMPA).- 900
3. Lower incisor to FH plane
(FMIA). - 650
Tweed’s triangle formed by:
1. Frankfort horizontal plane
2. The mandibular plane
3. The long axis of lower incisor
57. The basis is the FMA angle, and the following can be derived
from the change in its value as:
1. FMA 16 to 28: good prognosis (60 percent of malocclusions)
at 16, IMPA should be 95
at 22, IMPA should be 90
at 28, IMPA should be 85
2. FMA from 28 to 35:
prognosis fair at 28, IMPA should be 85 extactions necessary
majority of cases at 35, IMPA should be 80 to 85.
3. FMA above 35, prognosis bad, extractions frequently complicate problems.
• Tweeds stressed the importance of the FMIA angle, recommending that it
be maintained at 65 to 70.
58. WITS APPRAISAL
• Wits appraisal is not analysis is diagnostic aids to easure AP
relation.
• Alexander Jacobson was the head of orthodontic
department at university of Witwatersrand Johannesburg,
South Africa that’s why name “wits”
• There are many situations in which ANB reading cannot be
relied upon e.g. position of Nasion, rotation of jaw.
59. Applications of wits appraisal
The ANB angle is shown to be affected by several enviornmental factors,
diagnosis based on this angle may give false results, in certain cases.
Factors affecting ANB angle-
1) Patient’s age- ANB has a definite tendency to reduce with increasing age.
2) Change in spatial position of nasion.
3) Rotational effect of jaws
4) Change in the angle SN to occlusal plane.
5) The degree of facial prognathism.
60. Effect of position of Nasion
A) Normal relationship
B) Nasion forward due to
long cranial base.
C) Nasion retropositioned
due to short cranial base.
61. Effect of angulation of jaws, occlusal
plane on ANB angle
A) Normal relationship.
B) Effect of counterclockwise
rotation of face .
C) Effect of clockwise
rotation of face.
62. • Occlusal plane is drawn through
the region of overlapping cusps
of premolars & molars.
• Perpendiculars are drawn on
occlusal plane from points A &
B.
• Contact points labelled as AO &
BO.
WITS APPRAISAL
63. Clinical Significance –
In skeletal class II,BO located well behind AO.
In skeletal class III,BO would be forward of point AO.
Greater the wits reading – Greater the jaw discrepancy.
64. Computerized cephalometic systems
• Computers are widely used in cephaometrics.
• Allow quick digitizing landmark & generate analysis.
• Superimposition of serial radiograph possible.
• Easy storage and retrieval of cephalometric tracing & value.
• Combination of cephalometric data with other patient records
& photographs.
65. Errors In Cephalometry
• Radiographic projection errors –
Magnification & distortion of image.
• Errors within measuring system – human error.
• Errors in landmark identification -
quality of radiograph,
precision of landmark identification & reproducibility,
operator bias.
66. Cephalometric superimposition
• Involves analysis of lateral cephalogram of same patient taken
at different time intervals.
• Helps to evaluate patient growth pattern, changes produced
by orthodontic & surgical procedures.
67. Cephalometric superimposition involve
1. Changes to the overall face.
2. Changes to the maxilla & maxillary dentition.
3. Changes to mandible and mandibular dentition
4. Amount and direction of condylar growth
5. Mandibular rotation.
68. Superimposition technique
Done by superimposing serial film on a stable registration point
that chges little during the growth period.
• Broadbent triangle
• Sella- Nasion line
• Basion horizontal
• Basion – nasion plane
• Maxilary superimposition
• Mandibular suprimposition
69. Broadbent triangle (1931)
• Triangle is obtained using nasion
(N), sella (s) & Boltons point (Bo).
• R point is midpoint of
perpendicuar from the center of
sella to Bolton plane.
• Serial tracing is done on R point
keeping BO-Na plane parallel to
each other.
70. Sella- Nasion line
• Method was described by
American Board of orthodontics
1990
• Tracings are oriented on the sella-
nasion plane using sella as
registration point
71. Basion horizontal
• By Coben 1986.
• Constructed at the level of
anterior border of foramen
magnum parallel to FH
plane.
• Basion used as registration
point.
72. Basion – Nasion Plane
• By Ricketts in 1979.
• Tracing is superimposed on
Basion – Nasion plane
• point CC used as registration
point.
• CC point is the intersection of
the basion – nasion plane and
facial axis.
73. Maxillary superimpositions
• Used to determined the movement of maxillary
teeth in relation to the basal part of maxilla.
Method include:
1. Superimposition along the palatal Plane using
anterior nasal spine (ANS) as reference point.
2. Superimposition at the nasal floor & registered at
the anterior surface Of the maxilla.
3. Superimposition along the palatal plane using
pterygomaxillary fissure as the registration point.
4. Superimposition on best fit of internal palatal
surface.
5. Superimposition on the outline of infratemporal

teeth in relation to the basal part of mandible.
Superimposition includes:
1. Lower border of mandible
2. Constructed mandibular plane between menton
and gonion.
3. Anterior contour of chin
4. Anterior contour of cortical plates at the inferior
border of symphysis.
5. Contours of mandibular canal posteriorly & lower
