This study was undertaken to investigate the values of the cephalometric standards of Korean children which consisted of 57 boys and 61 girls with normal occlusion and harmony of the facial musculature. The following conclusions were obtained. 1) The relatively vertical inclination of nasal bone and flat contour of the frontal bone contribute to the flattening of the upper face. 2) Slight lack of chin prominence characterizes the lower face while procumbent incisors and their alveolar bone dominate the middle face. 3) A caudal skull base inclination is probably the most specific feature for Korean.
