Abstract

This is the first article in a three-part series considering skeletal discrepancies in the vertical and transverse dimensions. Discrepancies in the vertical dimension are a relatively common finding, presenting challenges for the orthodontist, in terms of treatment planning, management and relapse.

CPD/Clinical Relevance: This article aims to increase awareness of the assessment, aetiology and management of patients presenting with a reduced Frankfort/maxillary mandibular planes angle and reduced anterior lower face height commonly described as ‘low angle’.
