Assessment of head tilt in young children with unilateral posterior crossbite by video recording.

14 children with unilateral posterior crossbites (PCB) participated in this study and 14 children with Angle's class I occlusion. Body posture analysis was made by a video recording technique. The results showed greater tilt in the angles of head tilt in PCB children when compared to neutral occlusion children. We also observed that head tilt followed the side of crossbite. Such results suggest that unilateral PCB could be related to the development of head tilt on the same side of the crossbite.
