28
Q

maxilla is moved forward by growth of ___ behind it

A

cranial base

29
Q

how must the maxilla grow to get out from under cranium

A

downward and forward

30
Q

up until what age is the “push forward” by cranial base important in the forward growth of maxilla

A

age 6 - failure can cause mid face deficiency

31
Q

at what age does cranial base stop growth and further downward and forward growth of maxilla is purely a result of sutural growth

A

age 7

32
Q

what what age does mid-palatal suture close

A

age 8

33
Q

does the remodeling of palatal vault move in the same direction as it is being translated

A

yes

34
Q

in maxilla, is bone removed from floor of nose and added to roof of mouth

A

yes

35
Q

what is the Expanding V Principle

A

as palatal vault moves down, it also widen

36
Q

growth of nasal bone is complete at what age

A

10

37
Q

what forms mandible? what type of formation?

A

Meckel’s cartilage via intramembranous bone formation

38
Q

what two methods of growth are important for mandible

A
  1. endochondral growth in condylar region
  2. intramembranous growth in other areas
39
Q

does the displacement created by cranial base growth and the moved TMJ contribute to movement of mandible

A

contributes to little to no growth

40
Q

cartilage that covers the surface of mandibular condyle undergoes what growth

A

endochondral growth

41
Q

does hyperplasia, hypertrophy, and endochonral replacement and ossification occur at condylar growth site

A

yes

42
Q

what growth occurs in mandible (apart from mandibular condyle)

A

intramembranous growth - formed and grow by surface apposition and remodeling

43
Q

what is the accurate global understanding of mandibular growth?

A

mandible is translated downward and forward and grows upward and backward in response to this translation

44
Q

what is the predictable sequence of growth completion for maxilla and mandible

A
  1. width completes first
  2. anterior-posterior length completed second
  3. vertical height is completed last
45
Q

does facial growth completely end in late teens or twenties

A

no

46
Q

growth slows greatly to a basal level after ___ but does continue

A

sexual maturity

47
Q

what is bony replacement of cartilaginous precursors

A

endochonral bone formation

48
Q

how does cranial base and condyle of mandibule form

A

endochonral bone formation

49
Q

what is less modifiable in the context of dentofacial orthopedics

Q

what is the secretion of bone matrix without cartilaginous precursors

A

intramembranous bone formation
