Abstract
The literature exploring the reasons and the development of the orofacial-orthopaedic anomalies and orthodontic deviations deals measurably with the correlation of these deviations and postural disorders. The development of certain pathological curvatures different from the physiological curvatures of the spine is mainly responsible for the majority of the postural deviations present during the pre-puberty. No spinal curvatures are found in the frontal plane at healthy people. In a normal spine there are four types of spinal curvatures (thoracic and sacral kyphosis, and cervical and lumbar lordosis) in the sagittal plane responsible for the upstanding posture. These curvatures become the characteristic attributes of an individual at the age of six-seven (Bellyei, 1995).
