This document discusses craniofacial development from prenatal to postnatal growth. It covers growth of the cranial vault, cranial base, maxilla, mandible, and facial soft tissues. Growth occurs primarily through intramembranous ossification, endochondral ossification, and modeling/remodeling at sutures and synchondroses. The key determinants of growth include intracranial pressure, cartilage growth, and soft tissue pulling. Growth rates are highest early in development and in adolescence, and various sutures and synchondroses close at different ages as the skull reaches 95% of adult size by age 10.
