Innovation in cephalometry
The Procrustes cephalometric analysis carries out a diagnosis by scrutinizing the differences between the case and an optimum (Sassouni 1955) Each optimum is personalized according to typology, stage of growth and ethnic appartenance of each case.
Only eighteen cephalometric landmarks are used in the Procrustes cephalometry. If you digitize three more landmarks, the software can also compute classical values from Tweed, Ricketts and Steiner analysis.
