Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients in the mixed and permanent dentition age groups. 2. High-quality digital lateral cephalometric radiographs with adequate contrast and sharpness. 3. Radiographs taken in natural head position with teeth in centric occlusion and lips at rest. 4. Patients without prior orthodontic treatment. 5. Complete and identifiable anatomical landmarks required for cephalometric analysis. 6. Radiographs obtained using standardized radiographic protocols of the institution.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with a history of previous orthodontic or orthopaedic treatment. 2. Lateral cephalometric radiographs with poor image quality, including distortion, artifacts, or inadequate contrast. 3. Radiographs with craniofacial anomalies, syndromes, or congenital deformities (e.g., cleft lip and palate). 4. Patients with a history of maxillofacial trauma or surgery affecting craniofacial structures. 5. Incomplete records or radiographs with missing or indistinct cephalometric landmarks. 6. Radiographs not taken in a standardized head position or proper occlusal relationship.
