Abstract

The author has evaluated the panoramic image of the mandibular condyle according to its horizontal condylar angle (0˚, 10˚, 20°, 30°, 40°) and mandibular position (standard, 25㎜ forward and reverse position). The results were as follows: 1. The larger the horizontal condylar angle was, the larger the horizontal magnification was in all positions. 2. In case of small horizontal condylar angle, profile view could be obtained in 25㎜ forward and reverse position. 3. In case of large horizontal condylar angle, profile view could not be obtained in any positions.
