Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of a newly developed mobile application versus the conventional method of cephalometric analysis in the diagnosis of dental and skeletal deformities among pre-adolescent patients.

Conditions

Mobile Application; Cephalometric Analysis

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The Accuracy of the newly developed mobile application versus the conventional method of cephalometric analysis in the diagnosis

  The accuracy of the mobile application will be measured based on cephalometric analysis angles( by degrees) of Egyptian people according to Soliman SA. PHD thesis 1988

  3 monthes

Study Arms (1)

Lateral cephalometric radiographs of pre-adolescent patients (8-13) years old.

EXPERIMENTAL

Diagnostic Test: newly developed mobile application

Interventions

newly developed mobile application DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The application will be developed in native Android, using Java (backend) and XML (front-end) as the programming language. The program of choice will be Android Studio®, YouTube® (video reproduction) and Firebase® (database) will be used as external APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). The layout of the application will be developed using: Adobe Illustrator® software. The logo, brand, objects, and shapes of the mobile application will be designed to enable to resize of the images without any loss of quality, due to the wide range of scales available in current smartphones

Lateral cephalometric radiographs of pre-adolescent patients (8-13) years old.
