Abstract: Background: Through observation, the mandibular antegonial notch presents as a concavity in the inferior border of the mandible, anterior to the gonial angle. Lateral cephalograms are commonly used for the evaluation of changes in a patient’s growth pattern. Aim: to assess the mandibular morphology with the usage of various parameters obtained from a lateral cephalogram. Materials and Method: This study was executed on a total of 100 lateral cephalograms; which was composed of males and females at age range of 13-35. Lateral cephalograms were obtained from a software called FACAD, in which various data uploaded by the postgraduates from the Department of Orthodontics of Saveetha Dental College could be assessed. With this software, various parameters could be assessed and the measurements could be measured. Results: In regard to the linear measurements of the samples obtained, the mean value that was calculated for the antegonial notch depth in males was shown to be 2.26, while in females it was seen to be 2.22. These findings showed that males have a higher value compared to the opposite sex. On an average, both the genders showed a mean of 2.24 in their antegonial notch depth. When the ramus height was evaluated, the mean value for males was 54.22 while in females it was 53.64. Overall, all 100 samples gave a mean value of 53.94 for the antegonial ramus height. Conclusion: The ramus height was found to be significantly smaller in females than in males. Sexual dimorphism was significantly evident with males having greater ramus height than females. Similar to this finding, the antegonial notch depth revealed greater values in males. Gonial angle were found to be significantly increased in in males rather than in females.
