Helps in orthodontic diagnosis.Helps in classification of skeletal and dental
abnormalities.Helps in planning treatment of an individual.Helps in evaluation of treatment results.Helps in predicting growth related changes.

Horizontal Planes in Cephalometry
Cephalometric Analysis
• Downs Analysis
• Steiner Analysis
• Tweed Analysis
• Wits Appraisal
Downs Analysis
• It is one of the most frequently used cephalometric analysis.
• Downs analysis consists of ten parameters of which five are skeletal and five are dental.
Skeletal ParametersFACIAL ANGLE
• It is the inside inferior
angle formed by
intersection of nasion -
pogonion line and F.H.
plane.
• Average value- 87.8’
( 82 – 95’)
• Significance - Indicates
antero - posterior
positioning of mandible in
relation to upper face.
Angle is increased in
skeletal class III with
ANGLE OF CONVEXITY
• Angle formed at the
inersection nasion-point A
to point A – pogonion.
• Average value; 0’
( -8.5 to 10’).
• Significance- A positive
angle suggest a prominent
maxillary denture base in
relation to mandible.
• Negative angle is
indicative of prognathic
profile.
A-B PLANE ANGLE
• Angle formed at the
intersection of point A –
point B line to nasion –
pogonion line.
• Average value- -4.6’
( -9 to 0’)
• Significance- indicative
of maxillo mandibular
relationship in relation to
facial plane.
• Negative since point B
is positioned behind point
A.
• Positive in class III
malocclusion.
MANDIBULAR PLANE ANGLE
• Angle formed at the
intersection of mandibular
plane with F.H.
Plane.
• Average value-
21.9’ ( 17 to 28’)
Y-AXIS
• Angle formed b/w sella
gnathion to F.H. plane.
• Average value; 59’ ( 53’
to 66’)
• Angle is larger in class
II facial patterns.
Indicates growth pattern
of a individual.
CANT OF OCCLUSAL PLANE
• Angle formed b/w
occlusal plane to F.H.
Plane
• Average value- 9.3 (
1.5 to 14’)
• Gives a measure of
slope of occlusal plane
relative to F.H. Plane.
INTER INCISAL ANGLE
• Angle between long axes
of upper and lower
incisors.
• Average value: 135.4’ (
130 to 150.5’)
• Decreased in case of
bidental protrusion
INCISOR OCCLUSAL PLANE ANGLE
• This is the inside inferior
angle formed by the
intersection between the
long axis of lover central
incisor and the occlusal
plane and is read as a
plus or minus deviation
from a right angle
• Average value: 14.5” (
3.5 to 20’)
• An increase in this
angle is suggestive of
increased lower incisor
proclination.
INCISOR MANDIBULAR PLANE ANGLE
• This angel is formed by
intersection of the long
axis of the lower incisor
and the mandibular plane.
• Average value: 1.4’(-8.2
to 7’)
• An increase in this angle
is suggestive of increased
lower incisor proclination.
UPPER INCISOR TO A-POG
• This is a linear
measurement between
the incisal edge of the
maxillary central incisor
and the line joining point
A to pogonion. This
distance is on an average
4mm mm(rang-1 to 5
mm)
• The measurement is
more in patients
presenting with upper
incisor proclination.

TWEED ANALYSIS
Makes use of three planes
1. Frankfort horizontal plane
2. Mandibular plane
3. Long axis of lower incisors
FMA (Frankfurt plane to
mandibular plane)16-35
FMIA (Frankfurt plane to lower
incisor angulation)85-95
IMPA (Lower incisor to
mandibular plane)60-75
WITS APPRAISAL
• Measures the relationship of maxilla and mandible to each other and to the sagitalplane
• Used where ANB are not realiable
• Perpendicular are drawn from point A and point B to the functional occlusal plane to form AO and BO
