Abstract
An accurate, simple, rapid method of cephalometric profile analysis is proposed. Templates, derived photographically from the 9-year through 18-year male-female Bolton standard tracings, are used to define the optimal locations for any selected hard or soft tissue dentofacial landmarks. Discrepancies between the ideal and actual positions of each landmark are immediately apparent and graphically reveal existing deformities. No tracing or measurements are required, as the analysis is performed directly on the patient's cephalogram. The construction of the templates and their application to clinical cases are described.
