MIDTERMS Flashcards
(171 cards)
Combinations of deposition and resorption result in growth movement toward the depository surface
Drift
Ramus movement
Results in drift of ramus in posterior direction
Region of the craniofacial complex that holds the greatest potential for adaptive changes.
Oral apparatus
Chondrocranium and Splanchnocranium or Viscerocranium under _
Face
growth in this of both jaws continues through the period of puberty
Length and height
Viewed at the tip or end wires maybe half round, oval square, or rectangle
Design
primary factors influencing from the late embryonic period, throughout fetal period and postnatal juvenile period are:
- expansion of the brain and cranial vault
- Growth of anterior cranial base
- Expansion of nasal cavity and oropharynx
Completion of growth in the maxilla in mandible is achieved in definite sequences
- Width
- Length
- Height
Is primarily structural and contributes little to the overall growth, possibly expresses growth factors that support the facial sutures
Nasal Capsule
Buccal side of mandible deposition
Postero-inferior
Cells responsible for resorption
Osteoclasts
5 metals used in orthodontics
- Gold
- stainless steel
- Elgiloy
- Nickel silver
- Nitinol or nickel titanium
this growth mechanism involves sutures, endosteal and periosteal surfaces, and alveolar processes
Nasomaxillary growth
Lip thickness reaches maximum during __ then decreases throughout __
Adolescence, adulthood
begins when neural crest-derived mesenchymal cells differentiate into specialized, bone forming cells called osteoblasts
Intramembranous ossification
Mandibular arch perimeter
+2mm during early mixed dentition
-4-6mm during late mixed dentition
-3.5mm (male) or 4.5mm (female)between 8-15 y.o
Premaxillary/ Maxillary sutures close at
3-5 years
Midface or nasomaxillary complex
- Maxilla, nasal, Zygomatic, Lacrimal, Palatine, Vomer, turbinates
Mandibular Intermolar width
+2-3mm between 6-16 years of age
it trails behind growth of the jaws before adolescence
lips
Ramus anterior part movement
Resorption
this experiences a small and variable degree of rotation, forward or backward
Maxilla
Buccal side of mandible resorption
Antero-superior
flat bones are formed via
Intramembranous ossification
