title: A study of the craniofacial skeleton.
abstract: Multivariate analysis of craniofacial profiles demonstrated the complex interaction between the brain case and facial skeleton during growth and between various occlusal categories. Only by investigating craniofacial growth data still further will it be possible to establish normative standard growth patterns that can withstand critical scientific appraisal.
