Objective:
In order to establish the normal value of Holdaway analytical method of Chongqing and to reveal the regular patterns and characteristics concerning the craniofacial morphology.
Methods:
58 students, with permanent dentition were selected as the samples. The cephalometric images were scanned into a computer and the images were imported into the program. The cephalometric analysis were automated by the computer. The cephalometric analytical method of Holdaway was used in this study. Correlational analysis were calculated.
Results:
The normal values of Holdaway analytical method for permanent denition on normal occlusal adults of Chongqing were established and compared with that of Pekingman, Japanese and White man.
Conclusions:
We found that soft cephalometric measurement values are various in sex and races and regional population. There were correlations between hard and soft tissues.
