Abstract
During construction of dentures there is frequently a need for one or more reference planes. Various opinions have been expressed in literature on the mutual relations of reference planes used in prosthetic care of patients. On a sample of 60 cephalograms of patients with almost normal occlusion, seven variables were analysed. by roentgencephalometric method. The results of this study revealed the mean values of angles measured and their variability as well as their mutual correlation. Basic statistical parameters revealed significant variability of the occlusal plane inclination in the group of examinees with almost normal occlusion. The highest level of variability was found for the Camper's line - Occlusal line angle which indicates that the use of Camper's line to determine the occlusal plane is unreliable.
