Abstract: Two-dimensional(2D) cephalometrics is an important diagnostic technique in dentistry.Three-dimensional(3D) cephalometrics is becoming a hot point along with the popularity of cone-beam CT (CBCT).However,the 3D cephalometric technique,like 2D cephalometric technique,there are many technical problems needed to be solved.In this article,several topics,including multi-source of 3D cephalometrics,the head position in 3D cephalometrics,the difficulty of landmark indication,norms for 3D cephalometrics and superimposition in 3D imaging,are discussed.
