Cephalometric tracing is achieved by manual and or computerized method, the manual method is considered the gold standard in the cephalometric analysis.
(b) Digital
cephalometric tracing of postoperative lateral radiograph using Dolphin Imaging Software.
The cephalograms taken at each step are shown in Figure 9 and superimposed
cephalometric tracing is provided in Figure 10.
Cephalometric tracing for anteroposterior distance of the upper airway.
His
cephalometric tracing showed treatment progress (Fig 3) with favorable changes in SNA, ANB, and soft tissue subnasale and upper lip advancement which reduced his profile concavity at end of week 10 of initiation of treatment.
A lateral
cephalometric tracing will show the steeper mandibular plane.
Andrews' preadjusted straight wire concept was based on his six keys of ideal occlusion.5,6 Correct crown inclination was the third key and the Collum angle was assumed to be zero for each tooth.5 This assumption of Andrews has been perpetuated in
cephalometric tracing templates ever since.
TRANSFER OF PROFILE ANGLE TO TRACING: A photocopy 1:1 of the
cephalometric tracing was made and then E-plane was drawn on it.
