This extensively modified version of the Sassouni Cephalometric Analysis is very beneficial to the dentist treating functional orthodontic and TMD patients. Some practitioners even derive benefits from its application when determining vertical in the edentulous patient. The NFO analysis has been shown to be of great benefit to determine vertical proportion and growth potential of the young patient. The analysis has the ability to show incisor placement relative to opening and closing trajectory and where to place the mandible for functional advancement. Practitioners need a diagnostic cephalogram that is visual and descriptive of the skeletal and dental malocclusion. This analysis provides many tools that will assist the clinician in making those decisions.
这种经过广泛修改的萨苏尼头影测量分析法对治疗功能性正畸和颞下颌关节紊乱病患者的牙医非常有益。一些从业者甚至在确定无牙患者的垂直关系时也能从其应用中获益。NFO分析法已被证明在确定年轻患者的垂直比例和生长潜力方面非常有用。该分析法能够显示切牙相对于开闭轨迹的位置，以及为实现功能性前伸应将下颌放置的位置。从业者需要一张直观且能描述骨骼和牙列错合情况的诊断性头影测量片。这种分析法提供了许多工具，将有助于临床医生做出这些决策。
