The aim of the research was to show all sagital variations that may occur in people with normal occlusion, i.e. the level of coincidence between skeletal and dental relationship. The research was done on 44 profile teleradiographs of people with normal occlusion by cephalometric method of analysis by Schwarz (angle PgA/SpP) and Steiner (angle ANB). The results obtained by Schwarz's method showed that 52,28% of the cases had class I skeletal relationship, 27,28% had class II and 20,45% had class III. Steiner's method of analysis showed greater coincidence of skeletal and dental relationships: skeletal class I was found in 63,64% cases, class III in 22,72% and class II in 13,64% of the cases. The comparison of Schwarz's and Steiner's methods of radiocephalometric analysis proved the coincidence of skeletal relationship in 26 people (59,09%). Among them only 17 cases (38,63%) had skeletal relationship of class I, 5 cases (11,36%) had coincidence of skeletal relationship of class II and only 4 people (19,09%) had coincidence of class II. There were also other variations of skeletal relationship according to Schwarz and Steiner (I and II, II and I, I and III as well as III and I). Combinations of II and III class have not been found.
