nature of craniofacial growth Flashcards
an increase in the number of cells
Hyperplasia
an increase in the the size of cells
Hypertrophy
whays cellular growth appears
Secreteion of extracellular material
Hypertrophy
Hyperplasiaa
what leads to the critical distinction between soft and hard tissues
Calcification of the extracellular material
is cartilage hard of soft tissue
Soft
how does soft tissue growth occur
Combo of hyperplaisa and hypertrophy
result of the growth of soft tissue
interstitial growth (growth inside tissue)
what can also accompnay interstitial growth
secretion of extracellular material
endochondral ossification
Cartilage is growing then replaced by bone
what type of growth is a characteristic of uncalcified cartilage
Interstitial growth
can interstitial growth occur in hard tissue
No, and growth can only occur at the surface and not in the calcified mass
hos does growth of hard tissue occur
direct addition in free surface, by cells of the periosteum
replacement of soft tissue
what does the growing in endochondrial ossification
cartilage grows, followed by replacement by bone
how does Endochondral ossification occur on long bones
bone formation on surface of cartilage
Invasion of blood vessel to hollow out center
ingrowth of B.V> lead to ossification center in the catilaginous caps
band of cartilage remains, to form a diaphysis and epiphyses
bands of cartilage in a long bone
Epiphyseal plates
how does a bone grow longer
Endochondral replacement
how does a bone grow wider
Direction formation of new bone
what does bone widening
PEriostem
can bone change in calcifed masses
Yes, due to osteocytes
why remodel the inner surface of bone
adapting to mechanical stresses
makes calcium and phosphate ion exchanges with blood
