The study aimed to investigate the some linear-angular parameters in puberty-aged boys based on cephalometry.
Lateral cephalograms of eight puberty-aged boys were used as material in the study. The saddle angle, articular angle, gonial angle, anterior cranial base length, posterior cranial base length, posterior facial height, and anterior facial height were studied. In 4 cases, the obtuse gonial angle coincides with a small posterior facial height (50%). Anterior cranial base length was always within the normal range (100%). The acute saddle angle was found in three cases (37.5%) with a small anterior facial height, and the same parameter was found in three cases (37.5%) with a small posterior facial height. In four cases, the small posterior facial height and small
anterior facial height coincided (50%).
