Popis: Objective:To investigate the cephalometric characteristics of Turkish children with Class III malocclusion and compare them with to those of children with clinically normal occlusion during the mixed dentition phase.Materials and Method:Lateral cephalometric radiographs of 80 children with Class III malocclusion (mean age, 10.23 years) and 80 subjects with normal occlusion (mean age, 10.79 years) were examined for the study. Mean values of 13 linear and 21 angular cephalometric parameters were measured and compared.Results:Sagittal skeletal measurements included SNB (Class III, 81.82 ± 4.26; control group, 74.5 ± 3.86; p
