Regional and craniotypological differences cephalometric parameters in practically healthy men of Ukraine

Abstract

This article describes the differences cephalometric parameters in practically healthy men from different regions of Ukraine and men of different craniotype in general group and representatives of the central region of Ukraine. When comparing the interregional differences cephalometric indicators revealed that the maximum length of the head, the length, depth and height of the nose, the height of the top of the face, the distance between nasion and between the incisive point among orbital breadth of men eastern, northern and central regions significantly larger or have the tendency to higher values compared with men, western and southern regions. As in total group of men and the representatives of the central region of Ukraine in the direction of hyper brachycephalic < brachycephalic < mesocephalic <dolichocephalic marked increase in the largest circumference of the head, transverse and sagittal curves, longest height of head, height of the forehead, physiological length of the face, length, height and depth of the nose, distances between nasion and between the incisive point between orbital width. By contrast, in the direction of dolichocephalic < mesocephalic < brachycephalic < hyper brachycephalic marked increase in the largest and smallest width of the head and medium width of face.
