The mandibular condyles in the submentovertex projection--their morphology and topographical relationship to the foramina spinosa.

On conventional radiographs, the morphology and position of the condyles in an axial view are best seen in the submentovertex projection. The foramina spinosa, which are used by the middle meningeal arteries as passages and are clearly outlined in this view, serve as landmarks for a co-ordinate system that permits precise measurements of various angles and distances. One hundred and twenty-six submentovertex views were used for measuring the condyles. Results presented as means and standard deviations suggest condylar variables to be related to the function of the stomatognathic system. Practical applications include surgical, orthodontic or prosthetic manipulations of the mandible resulting in transverse or sagittal displacement of the condyles.
