Facial vs. Skeletal Landmarks

•

#APposition

No agreement was found for AP categorization of the maxilla and mandible between skeletal-landmark and facial-landmark analyses. Most mandibles were diagnosed as retrognathic by the facial landmark, whereas most were diagnosed as optimal by the skeletal landmark. When the 2 landmarks disagreed, the facial landmark defined the optimal position farther anterior. The landmark chosen for diagnosis will impact the optimal jaw position and can affect orthognathic and orthodontic outcomes.
