Abstract
Lateral skull radiographs of adult patients who had suffered nasal trauma during childhood were compared with those of undergraduate dental students. Measurements from the former group indicated reduced downward and forward growth in the maxilla, and altered angulations for certain planes in the middle and lower thirds of the face. The angle of nasal projection was also reduced in the study group.Keywords
