Cephalometric characteristics of various races and ethnic groups have been described by several investigators as this information is essential for clinical and research purposes. The objective of this study was to describe the dentofacial and soft tissue pattern of Indo-Aryans and to compare it with accepted standards for Caucasians and other North Indian population groups. Lateral cephalometric radiographs of 30 females with pleasing profile and good occlusion, aged 16-21 years, were used. A computer aided cephalometric analysis was performed and the basic descriptive statistics for the various cephalometric variables were obtained. Indo Aryans have shown a mild convex Dental Pattern as compared to Caucasians but similar to North Indians. Their soft tissue pattern is characterised by increased thickness of upper lip and a thin lower lip.
