5. Definition of DevelopmentDefinition of Development
“Development is a progress towards maturity” –
Todd
“Development refers to all naturally occurring
progressive, unidirectional, sequential changes
in the life of an individual from it’s existence as
a single cell to it’s elaboration as a
multifunctional unit terminating in death” –
Moyers
“Development connotes a maturational processwww.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
6. Major themes of developmentMajor themes of development
• Changing complexity
• Shifts from competent to fixation
• Shifts from dependent to independent
• Ubiquity of genetic control modulated by
environment
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
7. Changing complexity
• Takes place at all level of organisation
from the sub-cellular to the whole
organism
• Normally complexity increases with
development .
• Most complex period of developing
dentition is transition of dentitions.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
8. Shifts from competent to fixation
• Undifferentiated cells once differentiated
become fixed.
Shifts from dependent to
independent
• Development brings greater independence at
most levels of organisation.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
9. Ubiquity of genetic control
modulated by environment
• Genetic control of development is
constantly being modified by
environmental interactions

10. Correlation betweenCorrelation between
Growth & DevelopmentGrowth & Development
• Growth is basically anatomic
phenomenon and quantitative in nature
Development is basically physiologic
phenomenon and qualitative in nature
• Growth may not always be associated
with increase in size, it may at times
result in decrease in size, e.g. thymus
gland after puberty
Development on the other hand is awww.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
11. Importance of growth andImportance of growth and
development to orthodontistdevelopment to orthodontist
• Serves as a backbone to understand the
etiology of malocclusion
• Helps to assess the health and nutrition of
children

proportionality .It refers not just to a set of
proportional relationships at a point in time
but to change in these proportional
relationships over time.
• Cephalocaudal gradient
• An important aspect of pattern is
predictablity
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
21. PredictabilityPredictability

- Morphogenetic
- Developmental
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
22. VariabilityVariability
• No two individuals with the exception of
monozygotic twins are like.

in terms of deviations from the usual
pattern, for which it is imp to understand
the concept of normality.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
23. NormalityNormality
• Normality refers to that which is usually
expected, is ordinarily seen or typical –

population and pattern of growth
Advantages: Precise measurements.
Disadvantages:All growth data must be cross sectional.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
55. ANTHROPOMETRY:
• measurements using soft tissue points overlying
bony landmarks in living individuals.
• can also be done on dried skulls but variation in
soft tissue thickness would produce different
results.
• Possible to follow the growth of an individual
directly.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
56. • CEPHALOMETRIC RADIOGRAPHY:

57. Mineralized sections.
• Fully mineralized sections are superior to
demineralized specimens as there is less processing
distortions and both organic and inorganic matrix can
be studied simultaneously.
• Cellular details and resolutions can be enhanced by
reducing the thickness of the sections.
• Specific stains can be used to enhance both cellular and
extra cellular details.
• Thin sections can however quench more rapidly
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
58. Microradiography.
• High resolution of images of bone sections
• Differential density between primary and
secondary bone.
• Strength of the bone-proportional to degree of
mineralisation.
• secondary bone has more strength than primary
bone.
• Secondary mineralisation process takes about 8
months to form and hence the minimum retention
period after active orthodontic correction should
be 6-8 months.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
59. Fluorescent labels.
• Administered in vivo calcium binding labels

the direction and amount of growth
and the timing and relative duration
of growth at different sites.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
69. Natural markers.
• The persistence of certain developmental features
has led to their use as natural markers by means of
serial radiography.

growth can be used for reference to study
deposition, resorption and remodeling.
• Certain natural markers are used as cephalometric
landmarks.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
70. Implant markers.

tuberosity,
synchondrosis of the
basicranium, sutures
and the alveolar
process.

102. Growth sitesGrowth sites
– Such special sites
do not out the
entire carry
growth process
but the entire
bone takes part
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
103. Growth centersGrowth centers
• Special areas which are
believed to control the
overall growth of the bone
e.g.mandibular condyle.
• Force, energy or motor
for a bone resides
primarily within its growth
centre.
• Now believed that these
centers do not control the
whole growth process.

107. RemodellingRemodelling
• Required differential growth activity required for
bone shaping.
• It involves deposition and resorption occuring on
opposite ends
• Four types
– Biochemical remodelling
– Haversian remodelling
– Pathologic remodelling
– Growth remodelling
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
108. • E.g. The ramus moves
posteriorly by the
combination of
deposition and
resorption.
• so the anterior part of
the ramus gets
remodeled into a new
addition for the
mandibular corpus.

110. Functions of RemodelingFunctions of Remodeling
1. Progressively change the size of whole
bone
2. Sequentially relocate each component of
the whole bone
3. Progressively change the shape of the bone
to accommodate its various functions
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
111. 4. Progressive fine tune fitting of all the
separate bones to each other and to their
contiguous ,growing, functioning soft tissues
5. Carry out continuous structural adjustments
to adapt to the intrinsic and extrinsic
changes in conditions .

112. DriftDrift
• It is remodeling
process and a
combination of
deposition and
resorption.
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
113. DisplacementDisplacement
• Displacement is a physical movement of
the whole bone as it remodels
• Two types:
primary displacement
secondary displacement
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
115. Primary displacementPrimary displacement
• It is a physical
movement of a
whole bone and
occurs while the
bone grows and
remodels by
resorption
deposition
• E.g. in maxilla
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
116. Secondary displacementSecondary displacement
• It is the movement of
a whole bone caused
by the separate
enlargement of other
bones
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
117. Combination of remodeling &Combination of remodeling &
displacementdisplacement
• Both these
mechanisms carries
out two general
functions
• Positions each bone
• Designs and
constructs each bone
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
118. RotationRotation
• According to Enlow,
growth rotation is due
to diagonally placed
areas of deposition
and resorption
• Two types
– Remodelling rotations
– Displacement rotations
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
119. Principle of ‘Area relocationPrinciple of ‘Area relocation’’
Both remodeling and
displacement together
cause a shift in existing
position of a particular
structures with
reference to
another
.www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
120. Counter part principleCounter part principle
• “Growth of any given
facial or cranial part
relates specifically to
other structural and
geometric
counterparts in the
face and cranium” -
Enlow
www.indiandentalacademy.comwww.indiandentalacademy.com
121. Growth equivalent principleGrowth equivalent principle
This principle proposed by Hunter & Enlow:
relates the effects of cranial base growth on
the facial bone growth.
