Abstract

Background:  Cephalometry is of great importance in clinical diagnosis, treatment planning and in postgraduate curriculum as the shortage of these films can hamper the current diagnostic and treatment practice that requires cephalometric analysis in a great way. An alternative to radiographic films therefore holds the emergency. The use of OHP sheet and the colour printer can therefore serve the purpose for a temporary replacement of radiographic films.

Keywords: Lateral cephalograms, OHP sheet, Colour printer.
