Comparison of Yen, Beta, Wits, K angles with ANB in assessing sagittal dysplasia: A cephalometric study

View through CrossRef
Accurate assessment of sagittal skeletal discrepancies is crucial in orthodontic diagnosis. The commonly used ANB angle has limitations influenced by craniofacial growth and landmark variability. This study compared Yen angle, Beta angle, Wits appraisal and K angle with ANB angle in 120 cephalograms of adults aged 18-30 years. Statistical analysis showed Yen and Beta angles had the strongest correlation and predictive value, followed by K angle, while Wits appraisal was less reliable. Hence, Yen and Beta angles serve as more dependable alternatives to ANB angle in diagnosing sagittal dysplasia.
