Abstract

The author compared patients with extreme variations in MP-SN angle with normal group in order to examine the relationship between the MP-SN angle and other skeletal and dental parameters. The results were as follows; 1. The OP-SN angle and OP-MP angle decreased as the MP-SN angle decreased. 2. As the MP-SN angle decreased, the skeletal and dental components became more anteriorly situated. 3. In high MP-SN group, TFH, UFH, LFH, OP-MP, ADH increased nore than those in average MP-SN group. 4. The RH/TFH ratio decreased as the MP-SN increased.
