Abstract

The current study's goal is to determine how the Yen angle interacts with other sagittal divergence parameters in order to find more stable and consistent parameters for anterior-posterior cephalometric analysis. 450 participants had lateral cephalograms taken, which were then traced for three different sagittal discrepancy criteria. This study showed that the most evenly distributed metric for determining anterior-posterior sagittal divergence is the Yen angle. Other metrics, such as W angle and WITS, had a uniform distribution and variability. Because all of the parameters used in the study have statistically significant correlations with one another, it is advisable to investigate and correlate additional parameters with clinical data rather than relying solely on one
