    This thesis aimed to evaluate the occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) through cephalometric analysis in dentate patients treated at the Dental Center of the Universidad Norbert Wiener in 2023. A quantitative, applied, non-experimental, and cross-sectional study design was used. A total of 31 lateral cephalograms of adult dentate individuals were analyzed to establish the OVD, using a data collection sheet through the observation technique of the cephalometries. The first step was to verify general characteristics such as age and sex, then measure the distance from the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin, and finally, the occlusal vertical dimension was established through cephalometric analysis. It was observed that regarding OVD through cephalometric analysis, the upper angle showed a maximum value of 640 and a minimum of 400, with a mean of 51.640; the middle angle had a maximum value of 620 and a minimum of 260, with a mean of 48.030, and the transferred lower angle showed a maximum value of 590 and a minimum of 410, with a mean of 49.640. It was concluded that the occlusal vertical dimension through cephalometric analysis in dentate patients treated at the Dental Center of the Universidad Norbert Wiener in 2023 was an upper angle mean of 51.640, a middle angle mean of 48.030, and a transferred lower angle mean of 49.640.
