7-8
15-20 yr
Synchondrosis of Cranial Base
-endochondral growth
____ > endochondral ossification
proliferating chondrocytes
Craniofacial Sutures - Intramembranous growth
• Undifferentiated \_\_\_\_ stem cells • New bone formed on both sides of \_\_\_\_ • Intramembranous growth • Major sites of bone expansion during \_\_\_\_ craniofacial growth
mesenchymal
suture
postnatal
Sutures
• The sutures in the maxilla: ○ \_\_\_\_ suture § Can see from the palatal side ○ \_\_\_\_ suture ○ \_\_\_\_ suture ○ \_\_\_\_ suture ○ \_\_\_\_ suture ○ Suture between the vomer and maxilla: \_\_\_\_ suture
intermaxillary nasomaxillary lacrimomaxillary frontal-maxillary zygomaticomaxillary vomer-maxillary
Sutural growth
• Osteoblasts are on both sides of the surface of the \_\_\_\_
bone
Bone surface remodeling
- intramembranous growth
• Mesenchymal cells in the fibrous connective tissue membrane (____) - intramembranous growth• Intramembranous includes the ____ growth and remodeling
○ For the ____
periosteum
sutural
maxilla
Condylar Growth - Endochondral Growth
* For the mandible, the condyle is the only place that has \_\_\_\_ growth because there is cartilage * For the rest of the mandible, the growth is not from the cartilage, but from bone remodeling > \_\_\_\_ growth * The condyle is \_\_\_\_ on the surface, then proliferating and mature \_\_\_\_
endochondral
intramembranous
fibrocartilage
cartilage
Mandibular Body Growth
- Intramembranous Growth
• Enlargement occurs from resorption from side of \_\_\_\_, and growth is on the \_\_\_\_ surface ○ Only condyle is endochondral growth
ramus
posterior
Craniofacial Growth - Sagittal consideration
- normal facial growth
- maxillary and mandibular ____• Maxilla goes down and forward, mandible goes down and forward
○ Red is older; black is younger
- maxillary and mandibular ____• Maxilla goes down and forward, mandible goes down and forward
downward and forward
Facial Growth
- sagittal consideration (forward rotation)• Used implants in the maxilla and mandible to see what kind of growth is occurring
○ Use it to see direction and amount of growth
• The boys are three years apart
• Maxilla and mandible grows ____; but the posterior part goes down more-so than the anterior part > ____ [???] Rotation
○ Makes the mandibular plane angle ____
• Superimpose the implants in the maxilla > the nasal surface has resorption, and the molar erupts as well as the incisor
• Superimpose the implants in the mandible > molars erupt and they mineralize, as well as the incisor; mandibular plane changes; the condyle also grows
downward and forward
forward
decrease
Facial Growth
- Sagittal consideration (backward rotation)
* Certain patients have different growth patterns: the mandible grows downward but NOT \_\_\_\_; the maxilla has normal growth however * A - maxilla; B - mandible * This kind of growth is not \_\_\_\_
forward
favorable
Facial Growth - sagittal consideration (class III)
* Schedule III - the mandible protrudes \_\_\_\_ * The mandible grows forward much more than the \_\_\_\_
outwards
maxilla
Facial growth
- sagittal consideration
* The growth of mandible vs. maxilla is \_\_\_\_ * The face of a growing child is always \_\_\_\_
different
changing
Facial growth
- sagittal consideration
- Longitudinal growth age ____
- The growth patterns of Class I and Class II are similar. Most children show mandibular ____ rotation.
- SNA and SNB increase from age ____.
- ____ grows more forward than A point. Thus, ANB ____ from age 9 to 18.• The face of a child from 9-18 becomes more straight on the profile because the ____ grows more anteriorly than the maxilla
9 to 18 forward 9 to 18 b point decreases mandible
Facial growth
- vertical consideration
[???]
notes here?
Facial growth
- vertical consideration
If vertical sutural growth and vertical alveolar growth is ____ than vertical condylar growth, mandible would rotate ____ (bite-opening).
If vertical sutural growth and vertical alveolar growth is ____ than vertical condylar growth, mandible would rotate ____ (bite-closing).
• Cranial base is stable > the maxilla grows downward due to sutural growth, and then the mandible has condylar growth; the \_\_\_\_ erupt ○ This is vertical growth! • The amount of downward maxillary growth and eruption, compared with the mandibular condylar growth ○ Condylar growth is slightly more than the sutural downward growth and eruption > makes the mandible forward rotation; makes the posterior part of the face grow downward more than the anterior part ○ If there is not a lot of condylar growth, but more maxillary growth > the bite will open ○ ??? rotation
greater backward smaller forward molars
Facial growth
- vertical consideration
• The molar erupts a lot, the maxilla comes down a lot, there's not a lot condylar growth > mandible grows downward and backward > \_\_\_\_ rotation • Only sagittal and vertical growth is being discussed right now ○ Sagittal > max and man grow down and forward § Small % don't follow the pattern > go downward and backward ○ Vertical § Most children, condylar growth vertically is more than maxillary translation downward > forward rotation § Too much \_\_\_\_ eruption, and little condylar growth > the bite begins to \_\_\_\_ (downward and backward)
backward
molar
open
Facial growth
- vertical consideration
• Longitudinal growth age 9-18 • The growth patterns of Class I and Class II from age 9 to 18 are similar. • The Mandibular Plane Angle \_\_\_\_ from age 9 to 18. • The PFH:AFH ratio \_\_\_\_ from age 9 to 18.
• Normally, the mandibular plane would become flatter; if the angle becomes smaller, then you have \_\_\_\_ rotation which is unfavorable • A point > maxilla > the most \_\_\_\_ point is located here (the most forward point); the B point is the same concept, just in the mandible • ANB line has a small angle ○ Mandible grows more with growth > the angle should become \_\_\_\_ ○ Schedule III, ANB angle would be \_\_\_\_ because the mandible so far outward ○ If the mandible is \_\_\_\_ (schedule II) the ANB angle would be larger
decreases increases backward concave smaller negative short
Facial Growth
- transverse consideration
• Sagittal > face becomes \_\_\_\_ • [???] • Transverse growth ○ The maxilla grows \_\_\_\_, and the surface begins to remodel
straighter
downward
