Assessment of average cephalometric values in late mixed dentition of children between 11 and 13 years of age – An observational study

The craniofacial features, which include both skeletal and dental characteristics, can be attributed to either genetic inheritance or the dietary patterns that are acquired from parents. These characteristics are unique to certain ethnic, racial, and subracial groupings, as well as to other community groups. With the growing number of children in Indore seeking professional treatment for malocclusion, it has become increasingly important to define the criteria for an esthetically pleasing and normative facial appearance within this population.
