This study was carried out aiming to investigate the accuracy of
measurements , differences in linear and angular measurements of
the craniofacial complex using both the two and three dimensional
method of measuring in patients with different kind
s of
malocclusion ; and also to compare each kind of malocclusion to
the others. The sample of the study consisted of 40 patients ,
divided into three groups – a group for each skeletal malocclusion
, Cone Bean Computed Tomography (CBCT) was performed for
each patient , then two dimensional radiographs were derived from
the CBCT ; after performing the measuring , collecting the results
and analyzing them statistically.
