Abstract
A variant oblique posture of the head is described which eliminates most superimposition in radiographic examination of the orbit and maxilla. The position is simply attained without extraordinary equipment, is comfortable for the patient since there is no pressure on injured parts, and often obviates the need for planigraphy. The following injuries are demonstrated best: displacement at the frontozygomatic suture; deformity of the orbital floor and its distance from the anterior orbital rim; degree of depression of the anterior zygoma, antral wall, and alveolus; and vertical displacement of the zygomatic arch.
