This architectural and structural craniofacial analysis is based upon mutual balance of the cranial and
facial bony structures.
With this technique, the base and calvaria of the cranium and then the face can
be studied successively in relation to the cranium and craniospinal articulation.
Statistical averages are
avoided, and individual proportions influenced by the unique features of each skeleton are relied upon.
The dentition is placed within the cephalic context, and thereby etiologic factors of dentofacial
dysmorphoses which would not otherwise be demonstrated by conventional analysis are made obvious
This technique is particularly useful to the maxillofacial surg
