A cephalometric study of soft tissue analysis was performed for a random sample of 500 Egyptian young adults with an age average of 21.5 years. The means and standard deviations were calculated for seven linear measuremets and Student t test were obtained for statistical comparisons. The sex effect was significant for all the measurements, as there was a larger thickness of soft tissue in males than females. Hopefully the information derived from this study will aid the clinicians in their consideration of the soft tissue mask during the course of diagnosis and treatment planning
