Q

What path does the face growth take?

A

The face follows the somatic growth curve excepts the skeleton around the eyes, middle and inner ear which follows neural growth pattern

Q

Where does appositional growth occur?

A

during remodelling

18
Q

Where are membrane bones found?

A

facial and cranial vault

19
Q

What cartilage is secondary cartilage?

A

Condylar cartilage

20
Q

What happens to the intersphenoid bone during cranial base growth?

A

The inter sphenoid bone is fused between two bones so it cant contribute to post natal growth

21
Q

What happens to the sphene-ethmoidal bone during cranial base development?

A

It fuses at 3-5 years

22
Q

What happens to the sphene-occiputal bone during cranial base development?

A

It is found between the basiocciputal bone and basinphenoid and contributes to post natal growth at 12-16 years

23
Q

What growth occurs in the spheno-occiptal joint?

A

Bilateral growth

24
Q

What direction does remodelling of the cranial base move the face?

A

Anteriorly and inferiorly

25
Q

What age does the cranial base stop growing?

A

14 years in girls

16 years in boys

26
Q

What changes does the mandible undergo from birth until adult?

A

Increases in length, height and width
The angle becomes smaller
The relative sizes of the condylar and coronoid processes is the same and the condylar cartilage acts as a growth centre
The position of the mental foramen changes

27
Q

What age does condylar cartilage grow?

A

peaks at adolescence and ceases at 20 years

28
Q

What is the purpose of symphysial cartilage?

A

It unites the mandible

29
Q

How is the height of the mandible increased?

A

by developing the alveolar bone

30
Q

How is the length of the mandible increased?

A

Adding to the chin

31
Q

How is the width of the mandible increased?

A

By increasing condylar growth

32
Q

Which pharyngeal arch gives rise to the lower jaw?

A

first

33
Q

At birth, what is present in the maxilla?

A

Large frontal process and no alveolar bone or any anterior nasal spine is present

34
Q

What does pressure for the developing eyeball and brain cause to the maxilla?

A

Put pressure on the maxilla to grow downward

35
Q

How long does it take the septal cartilage to fully increase in width?

A

2 years

36
Q

How long does it take the septal cartilage to fully increase in length?

A

7 years

37
Q

How does thumb sucking affect arch development in palatal shelves?

A

Thumb sucking is thought to impact the growth of palatal shelves
By lowering the palatal shelves, you increase the size of the nasal cavity so more air can enter to increase respiration

38
Q

What happens to the cartilage between the great wings and body of sphenoid?

A

It ossifies so growth no longer comes from cartilage and can only come from remodelling

39
Q

How long is the suture growth of the upper jaw?

A

10 years

40
Q

How long is the endochondral growth of the ethmoid and nasal septum?

A

until 7th year
