Abstract: European-American norms are still used in the orthodontic
treatment of Saudi patients, despite the different ethnic backgrounds of
Saudis. The aims of this study were to evaluate the cephalometric features of
a Saudi population and to establish cephalometric norms for Saudis living in
the western region of Saudi Arabia. Seventy lateral cephalometric radiographs
of Saudis (32 females and 38 males; aged 18–28 years) with acceptable
profiles and Class I dental relationships were traced and analyzed. The mean
value, standard deviation, and range of 16 angular and linear variables were
calculated. The resulting norms for Saudis were compared with European-
American norms using an independent t-test. Male and female groups were
also compared using the t-test. Saudis tend to have an increased ANB angle
because of retrognathic mandibles and bimaxillary protrusion as compared
with European-Americans. Males tend to have more prognathic mandibles
than females as indicated by the statistically significant increase in facial
angle (P , .05) and SNB angle (P , .05). Although the anterior lower face
height was similar in males and females, males tend to have a steeper
mandibular plane angle when related to the anterior cranial base than females
(P , .05). Saudis have distinct cephalometric features, which should be used
as a reference in treating Saudi orthodontic patients. |
