Introduction: The standing balance of the skull on the spine in its cervical portion is a factor of consideration for the diagnosis of cranio-mandibular disorders and alterations in patients of all ages without distinction, that is, it is essential to conceive an accurate diagnosis in children and adults. However, over time, this element had not been taken into account in the differential diagnosis protocol, despite the fact that biomechanical alterations and dysfunctions in both hard and soft tissues are evidenced in a lateral skull teleradiography, essentially requested to initiate treatment.
