Linear Measurements (mm)

R-Max and L-Max

Distance traveled by Max mediolaterally. (Fig. 4)

R-Cres and L-Cres

Distance traveled by Alveo mediolaterally.

Angular Measurements (°)

R-ALV and L-ALV

Angular change between pre and post lines from Max to Alveo projected on Mid Max Perpendicular plane, perpendicular to C-FH.

R-Pre and L-Pre

Angular change between pre and post premolar axes projected on Mid Max Perpendicular plane, perpendicular to C-FH.

R-6 and L-6

Angular change between the pre and post molar axes projected on Mid Max Perpendicular plane, perpendicular to C-FH.
