Abstract:
12 patients who had suffered mid face fractures during their childhood were examined for skeletal deformities of the facial skull. The cephalometric data showed that neither the position nor the inclination of the maxilla were significantly different from normal anatomy. No correlation was found between the age, the severity of injuries and surgical treatment and resulting deformities.
