Comparative cephalometric evaluation of tongue position in subjects with skeletal class II division 1 and division 2 malocclusion.

Aim And Objective: To evaluate and compare the position of the tongue from rest to centric occlusion in subjects with skeletal class II division 1 and skeletal class II division 2 malocclusions with subjects of skeletal class II normal occlusion.

Material And Methods: The study was conducted on 30 individuals equally divided into three groups of skeletal class II division (div) 1, skeletal class II div 2, and skeletal class I normal occlusion. The study was conducted on two lateral cephalograms for each subject: one taken at rest and one in centric occlusion.
