To determine the horizontal inclination of the condylar long axis without taking the submentovertex radiograph, the author studied the interrelation between the angle formed by the midsagittal plane and the mandibular angle and the horizontal inclination of the condylar long axis. In 56 subjects, the author measured the angle formed by the midsagittal plane and both mandibular angle using the modified Twirl Bow and the horizontal inclination of the both condylar long axis from submentovertex radiographs. The result were as follows: The mean value of the angle formed by the midsagittal plane and the mandibular angle was l8.50±1.48° in right side and 19.30±1.55° in left side. The mean value of the horizontal inclination of the condylar long axis was 19.25±7.56° in right side and 20.27±7.050 in left side. The interrelation of the two angles was represented as follows: y = 20.31-0.0094× (r = -0.482, p<0.01) in right side and y = 20.64-0.066×(r =-0.301, p<0.05) in left side (y; the horizontal inclination of the condylar long axis, x; the angle formed by the midsagittal plane and the mandibular angle).
