The authors examined the relationship between cases of multiple missing teeth and skeletodental pattern by comparing cephalometric data from patients with 3 or more congenitally missing teeth in at least 2 different tooth groups with published cephalometric norms and Israeli cephalometric norms. Secondary aims were to determine the impact of the number of missing teeth and their locations (anterior versus posterior) on the cephalometric patterns.
