Objective:
To study the prevalence of bimaxillary protrusion among Palestinians.
Materials And Methods:
Cephalometric radiographs for 79 normal occlusion adult Palestinian university students were traced.
Results:
The interincisal angle was decreased in the Palestinian women compared to the Caucasian means, but this had no impact on lip protrusion.
Conclusion:
Relative to Caucasian cephalometric norms, Palestinians show no extraoral bimaxillary protrusion features, and therefore, these norms can be applied to Palestinian faces.
