Cephalometric Analysis from A to Z
Connect cephalometric landmarks and measurements with skeletal, dental and occlusal treatment planning.
With Prof. Gregor Slavicek
Course information
Read the cephalogram as part of the whole case.
Prof. Gregor Slavicek guides you from identifying anatomical landmarks to interpreting planes, angles and the relationship between the jaws, teeth and cranial base. The 22-lesson sequence builds from tracing fundamentals to skeletal trends and occlusal assessment.
Later lessons explore the curve of Spee, vertical dimension and compensatory mechanisms before bringing these findings into prosthetic planning. The focus is on interpreting measurements in context—not treating a tracing as a set of isolated numbers.

Who this course is for
For dentists connecting tracing with diagnosis.
A structured introduction and reference for clinicians working with orthodontic assessment, functional dentistry or oral rehabilitation.
Dentists focused on occlusal function
Explore how occlusal planes, facial height and compensatory mechanisms relate to the cephalogram.
Restorative and prosthetic clinicians
Connect incisor position, vertical dimension and occlusal curvature with rehabilitation planning.
A systematic reading
Identify. Measure. Interpret.
A useful tracing begins with consistent landmarks and ends with a reasoned interpretation.
Work through anatomical structures first, then constructed planes and measurements. Use that foundation to examine skeletal trends, dental positions and the functional relationships discussed throughout the course.
“
Measurements gain meaning when you connect them to the skeletal and occlusal context.
What you’ll learn
From landmark identification to case interpretation.
01
Trace anatomical landmarks
Identify cranial-base, maxillary, mandibular, dental and soft-tissue reference points.
02
Construct planes and angles
Follow the sequence from reference points to the measurements used in cephalometric analysis.
03
Interpret skeletal relationships
Review skeletal class, high- and low-angle patterns and the capacity for functional adaptation.
04
Assess teeth and occlusal planes
Connect anterior tooth and molar analysis with occlusal inclination and the curve of Spee.
05
Recognize compensation
Distinguish vertical, dentoalveolar and articular compensation when interpreting the findings.
06
Inform rehabilitation planning
Relate lower facial height, vertical dimension and cephalometric parameters to prosthetic decisions.
Beyond the tracing
Connect facial structure with occlusal function.
The second half of the course moves from skeletal and dental analysis into vertical dimension, occlusal curvature and compensation. These topics lead into the final lesson on prosthetic parameters in cephalometry.
- Skeletal and dental relationships
- Vertical dimension and facial height
