Cephalometric study of the position of ala-tragus line in relation to Frankfort horizontal plane and occlusal plane among Ludhiana population

Indian Journal of Dental Sciences, 2017
Introduction: The inclination of occlusal plane (OP) is determined by paralleling the OP to ala-tragus line. Inspite of its wide acceptability, the exact location of tragal point on ala-tragus line is unclear. In addition, morphologic features vary among

The Ala-Tragus Line as a Guide for Orientation of the Occlusal Plane in Complete Dentures

Journal of Contemporary Dental Practice, 2014
ABSTRACT Aim The use of the ala-tragus line (ATL) to orient the occlusal plane (OP) is controversial because there is a lack of agreement on the exact points of reference for this line. This study determined the relationship between the natural OP and ATL which was established by using the inferior border of the ala of the nose and (1) the superior ...

Relationship between the Occlusal Plane corresponding to the Lateral Borders of the Tongue and Ala-tragus Line in Edentulous Patients

Journal of Contemporary Dental Practice, 2012
ABSTRACTAimDefinitions of the ala-tragus line (ATL) cause confusion, because the exact points of reference for this line do not agree. This study determined the relationship between the prosthetic occlusal plane (OP) corresponding to the lateral borders of the tongue and ATL which was established by using the inferior border of the ala of the nose and (

Evaluation of the posterior reference point of ala tragus line in relation to occlusal plane and Frankfort horizontal plane through cephalometry in Sangareddy (Telangana) population

International journal of health sciences, 2022
The Occlusal plane (OP) inclination is determined by paralleling the ala- tragus line to the occlusal plane. The location of the ala-tragus line is unclear because the exact location of the posterior reference tragal point is controversial. Additionally, morphological variations are observed between different ethnic groups. Therefore, evaluation of the
