[Possibility of cephalometric superimposition on a single point after Steiner, Ricketts and Cervera]

Following a brief introduction to the various methods of cephalometric superimposition proposed by different authors and school, the paper examines Cervera's system of cephalometric superimposition on a single point. The letter identified a single point, OcC point (Cervera's occlusal point), as the primary fulcrum from which to perform a correct cephalometric superimposition in order to examine the patient's anticipated growth. It is clear that initial anthropological interest, which was focused on the anterior cranial fossa, has gradually moved down to the lower third of the face, the anatomo-functional region in which the functions of the stomatognathic apparatus are mainly performed.
