Q

Hyaline cartilage vs. fibrocartilage:

A

Hyaline: relatively translucent matrix
Fibrocartilage: tough, fibrous tissue matrix with no growth potential and produced by compressively loaded periosteum – load-bearing

Q

Why dentists should study bone physiology:

A

Teeth and bones are related mineralized structures
Bone support dentition
Tooth loss is due to mineralized tissue diseases
Most disease is an aberration of physiology

Q

Uniqueness of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ):

A

Only joint capable of structural adaptation and regeneration
Joint with bilateral mobility
Has articular periosteum

17
Q

Explain how mechanical loading of the jaws dictates facial form

A

Increase loading of jaws causes short, wide faces with a founded Md plane
Decreased loading of jaws cause narrow long face and steep Md plane

18
Q

Etiology of malocclusion

A

Primarily environmental
