A new method of lateral cephalometric analysis referred to as the Dawjee analysis is introduced. Landmarks, planes and angles are defined, and the technique is outlined. The Dawjee analysis is primarily focused on evaluating craniofacial structures in the vertical dimension and this introductory presentation demonstrates its application in both open and deep bite cases. Studies are in progress to develop a set of standardised values for this technique in a South African population sample.
