Vertical and sagittal morphology of the facial skeleton and the pharyngeal airway.

CONCLUSION: Statistically significantly narrower airways were found in patients with ANB more than 4°. In groups divided by SN-MP angle statistically significant difference have not found. Nasopharyngeal airway and oropharyngeal airway spaces statistically significantly negatively correlated with the SN-MP angle: the bigger the SN-MP angle, the smaller were nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airway spaces.
