Abstract
Craniofacial structures were studied by radiographic cephalometry in 10 boys and 10 girls at 9–14 years and 13 years later. The linear distances were measured in mm as well as with indices with the sella-nasion distance as denominator. The index measurements proved to be dependent on aqe to a rather limited extent. This held true for index measurements referring to skeletal points as well as soft-tissue points.
