While taking a lateral cephalometric radiograph, the patient is exposed to radiations, moreover; the bony structures overlap each other that enhances the likelihood of misreading of the measured values. By means of photogrammetric measurements, a fresh diagnostic resource is accessible to the orthodontist which permits an intangible, radiation free attainment of measure points of soft tissue with no instrumental expense and radiation to the patient. It has also been reported that lip-tooth relationships during speech and while smiling are not documented by means of the cephalometric radiograph. Photographs of the face while smiling and at rest are essential to acquire lip-tooth relationships. By means of this, the orthodontist can evaluate anterior tooth as well as adjoining soft tissue relationships. Even though cephalometry is the standard for illustrating skeletal and dental morphology but it might not be appropriate for extensive epidemiologic studies because of the radiations that the patient is exposed to.
