We obtained data by measurement.Results:Hard tissue: ANS-X, PNS-X and N-ANS in the group of patientswere statistically differentfrom those of the normal control group, butinANS-PNS and N-PO, there is no statistical dif- ference in these two groups. Angles of hard tissue: There is statistical difference in
