Abstract EN
The aim of this retrospective study was to examine hyoid bone position and C1 (atlas) morphology in males and females and analyze these parameters with respect to different sagittal skeletal patterns via cephalometry, with the goal of identifying cephalometric norms.
Lateral cephalometric radiographs from 120 individuals (average age: 21.1 ± 2.9 years) were classified according to their ANB angle (Class I, II, or III) and used to assess 14 parameters.
Class I and II patients showed significant differences in Hy-NSL, Hy-PD, Hy-CVT, Lum, and a-p measurements.
These parameters were consistently larger in males than in females.
Intergroup comparisons among males showed significant differences in the SNA, ANB, Hy-CVT, X, and Z measurements.
The hyoid was positioned more inferiorly and anteriorly and was more prominent in males than in females in all groups.
Among participants exhibiting a Class I skeletal pattern, C1 was also larger in the anterior-posterior direction in males than in females.
In the sagittal plane, the hyoid was positioned similarly in males with either Class I or III skeletal patterns but was positioned posteriorly in males with a Class II skeletal pattern.
In addition, the vertical position of C1 varied with sagittal skeletal pattern in males.
