Abstract
On 161 profile cephalograms of 69 boys aind 93 girls w.iith mixed dentition not yet orthodonticailly treated, we wished to determine the frequency of individual kinds of the Jarabak type of growth with regard to sex and Class 11/1, the values of the gonion angel (Ar-Go-Me) and its components (Ar-Go- -N and N-Go-Me) with regard to the class and type of growth, and the significance of the variety of the gonion angle and its components with regard to the class and type of growth. The values of the gonion angle and its components differ wlith regard to the class and type of growth. With regard to the class, the angle Ar-Go-Me was the most significant in Class III, as well as the angle Ar-Go-N, while the angle N-Go-Me was the highest in Class II. Regarding the type of growth, the angle Ar-Go-Me and its components were the highest in CW growth. Testing the significance of the various arithmetic means of the gonion angle and its components regarding the class and the type of growth iit was found that they dliffer considerably on the level of significance 0.01 in most oases.
