Planes_
| S.NO. | ||
|---|---|---|
| Skeletal landmarks | ||
| 1 | Inter-jugale plane | Two jugale points are marked on either side of the maxilla. A horizontal line is drawn joining the two jugale points. This is the inter-jugale plane |
| 2 | Mid-sagittal plane | A vertical line is drawn from the crista galli to the menton. This is the mid-sagittal plane |
| 3 | Zygomatic arch | A tangent is drawn along the zygomatic point |
| Dental landmarks | ||
| 5 | Long axis of the maxillary 1st molar | Two reference lines are drawn. First line is a horizontal line that represents the maxillary occlusal plane and the second line is a vertical line along the long axis of the maxillary 1st molar perpendicular to the occlusal plane |
| 6 | Facial plane of maxillary 1st molar | A vertical line tangent to the buccal surface of the distobuccal root of the molar is drawn. This is the facial plane |
