Digital cephalometric analysis illustrating morphological variation of the soft palate

Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2015
Introduction and Objectives: The soft palate plays a vital role in velopharyngeal closure which is strongly dependent on a close coordination of the velum and the contiguous pharyngeal structures. It is reasonable to hypothesize that these structures may
