Based on 393 cephalograms taken at the beginning of orthodontic treatment the mean values of some commonly used cephalometric angles were calculated and compared with the corresponding values given in the literature. The result of this comparison was that there are surprisingly small differences between our values based on an unselected malocclusion material and those in literature which are mostly based on normal occlusion patients.
