Abstract
Cranial base growth was minimal over the observation period. There were no differences in terms of the amount and pattern of growth. The cranial base is said to complete most of its growth by age 12, but this has only been verified through two-dimensional studies. Our findings using CBCT confirm this, and support the use of the cranial base as a stable anatomical reference structure for superimpositioning.
