Cephalometric assessment of Colombia’s mestizo population aged 6 to 12 years

Introduction: over the years, populations have been studied by means of lateral cephalic x-rays in a variety of ethnicities, ages, and study types, setting standards for different groups. In Latin America, studies show cephalometric differences from standards based on Caucasian populations. Method:...
