A radiographic cephalometric comparison was conducted between a sample in Dundee, Scotland, and (1) four samples of patients who had been selected for their good occlusions, and (2) three random samples of patients. The Dundee sample generally exhibited skeletal II tendencies in reference to the samples with ideal occlusions, but were less skeletal II with respect to the random samples.
