in class notes Flashcards
what does the flat bone of the cranial vault come from
from periosteal activitiy at the inner, outer, and fontanellies
what does modeling of the cranial vault lead to
Changes in size and shape
how does the cranial base growth
endochondral-synchrosis pushes bones apart to lengthen the base of the skull
what causes the maxilla to grow down and widden
Soft tissue (functional theory)
where is bone added and removed to cause maxillary growth
Resorbed in the front and added in the back
how does the mandible form
Extramembranous in association with meckel’s cartilage
how does the mandible grow
resportion in front of ramus and deposited behind the remus
in the body, where do things grow first
Things closest to brain grow first
What separates girls and boys growth spurts
2 years
why do guys grow more in their growth spurt
their’s is longer
how does tooth eruption affect the bone
Brings the alveolar bone with it
what is the affect of having implants too early
Late gowth can affect how implants change with time
where should normal people be found within the growth curve
within 2 standard deviations
shouldn’t move all around too
at what age do you have all your baby teeth
30 months
what happens if you can’t resorb baby teeth
may need to have them extracted
what is done to close space in the mandible naturally
the molars will move forward, but won’t affect anything really mesial to the canine due to the long roots
does unilateral cross bites tend to hang around
No, generally fixed to become a posterior cross bite
how can we use the leeway space to reduce incisor crowding
Hold the 1st molars back and since the premolars are smaller than the teeth they replace, extra room can be opened for erupting anterior teeth
what is the E space
The space difference between the primary second molar and the permanant first molar
how large is the E space
1/3 the leeway space
are primary or permant teeth whiter
Primary
what extra width does each slipped contact add
1mm (unless very slipped)
mild crowding is how many mm
1-2.99mm
medium crowding
3-5.99mm
