Features of teleroentgenographic indices determined by the methods of Bjork, Sassouni, Jarabak and Kim (scientific literature analysis)

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to analyze the current scientific literature on the features and use of cephalometric analysis methods of lateral teleroentgenograms by Bjork, Sassouni, Jarabak and Kim methods. The analysis is based on a review of current literary sources for 2010–2019, using scientometric databases eLIBRARY.RU, PubMed and Web of Science. An analysis of the literature on Bjork, Sassouni, Jarabak and Kim methods indicates that in order to effectively introduce them into the practice of orthodontists in Ukraine, it is necessary to determine the characteristics of teleroentgenographic indices for each of them for the local population, considering age and gender.
