Maxilla recessed or no
« on: November 02, 2021, 10:10:08 AM »
I used a ceph analysis software althought my sna and snb seem fine probably due the sella being more horizontal throwing it off, the maxilla length or co-a is 87.7 where by the average is 92 thats almost 5 mm off. So by co-a itself does it mean my maxilla is recessed?

No, you have to consider the measurements relative to other craniofacial points of reference.
