We estimated the scale height of intermediate and short period Miras making use of the maximum likelihood method. The available sample contains 1394 Mira variables. We divided these variables according to their periods. Our selection criterion was: |b| > 30deg because the interstellar absorption is practically negligible in this region at lambda = 12 micron. 85 intermediate period and 140 short period Miras have been left after the selection, their estimated scale heights are 260 pc and 590 pc respectively.
