Landmarks and linear measurements. The distances were measured from the Frankfort-horizontal (FH) plane (vertical) and the Sella-perpendicular (S-perp) plane (horizontal) to each landmark. Condylion (Cd): most superior point of condyle head. Coronoid process (Cp): tip of coronoid process. U1t and L1t: upper and lower 1st incisor tip. U1r and L1r: upper and lower 1st incisor root apex. U6mc and L6mc: upper and lower 1st molar mesial contact. Occlusal vertical dimension (VD): distance between mesial contact points of upper-right 1st molar and lower-right 1st molar as projected onto the S-perp plane
