Dr. James McNamara developed a cephalometric analysis method in 1984 to evaluate orthodontic and orthognathic surgery patients. The analysis divides the craniofacial skeleton into five sections - maxilla to cranial base, maxilla to mandible, mandible to cranial base, dentition, and airway. Linear measurements of landmarks and planes are compared to normative standards to assess relationships. Advantages include using primarily linear measurements, being more sensitive to vertical changes, and providing growth guidelines that are easily explained.

Relationship between orofacial muscles function and malocclusionRuhi Kashmiri
This document discusses the relationship between muscle function and malocclusion. It states that malocclusion results from an imbalance or disequilibrium between genetic, developmental, functional and environmental factors. Certain muscle functions like tongue thrust swallowing, mouth breathing, thumb sucking, lip biting and neurological conditions can directly cause malocclusions or the muscles change in a compensatory way. Different malocclusions like class II div 1 and 2, and class III have characteristic muscle pathologies. Treatment involves addressing the underlying muscle imbalances through myofunctional therapy or orthodontics to restore the dental equilibrium.
This document discusses the management of open bite malocclusions. It begins by defining open bite and classifying it as either skeletal or dental in nature. Skeletal open bite is caused by excessive vertical growth of the jaws while dental open bite is due to reduced incisor height. Common etiologies of open bite include thumb sucking habits, tongue thrusting, and abnormal skeletal growth patterns. The document outlines various treatment approaches for different open bite classifications and etiologies.

The document discusses several theories of craniofacial growth including:
1. Sutural dominance theory which posits that sutures are the primary drivers of growth. However, evidence shows sutures are growth sites not centers and respond to external stimuli.
2. Cartilaginous theory which argues growth centers are cartilages like the nasal septum and condylar cartilage. Removal of cranial base synchondroses arrests cranial base growth.
3. Functional matrix theory suggests soft tissues play a role through their response to functional forces during development. No single theory alone can fully explain craniofacial growth.
Growth and development (orthodontics) by dr venkat giri indugu , asst prof, sjdcVenkat Indugu
Growth and development are interrelated processes involving increases in size and maturation at the cellular and tissue levels. There are several types of growth including cellular hyperplasia/hypertrophy and tissue-level accretionary, appositional, interstitial, and compensatory growth. Growth occurs in phases from prenatal to postnatal to maturity. It is influenced by genetic, hormonal, nutritional, environmental, and other factors. Growth is studied using measurement approaches like craniometry and anthropometry or experimental approaches involving vital staining, radioisotopes, and implant radiography. Growth data is interpreted using distance/cumulative and velocity curves to understand patterns of differential growth along the cephalocaudal gradient and in Scammon's growth curves

The document discusses various growth spurts that occur during development, including:
1. The pre-pubertal growth spurt, which occurs in girls from ages 11-12 and boys from ages 14-15.
2. Other growth spurts include the infantile/childhood growth spurt around age 3, and the juvenile/mixed dentition growth spurt from ages 6-7 in girls and 7-9 in boys.
3. Growth occurs through cellular differentiation and multiplication, with growth rates increasing until birth and decreasing thereafter, resulting in growth appearing in "spurts" potentially linked to changes in hormonal secretion.
The document discusses the growth and development of the mandible. It begins with an overview of the prenatal development, including how the mandibular arch forms from the pharyngeal arches and contains Meckel's cartilage. Meckel's cartilage provides a template for the mandible to develop around it through intramembranous ossification beginning in the 7th week of prenatal development. The mandible continues developing and forming after birth through both intramembranous and endochondral ossification.

This document discusses various methods for predicting facial growth, including cephalometric methods like Moorrees mesh, Johnston's transformation grid, and Rickett's arcial growth prediction of the mandible. Non-cephalometric methods discussed include logarithmic spiral, Hirschfield and Moyers, and Todd's equation. The need for growth prediction in orthodontic treatment planning and challenges with accuracy are also addressed. The conclusion is that while various methods have been proposed, growth prediction is most reasonable for "average growers" but not "abnormal growers," and an orthodontist's experience is an important additional factor.
Growth & Development - General Principles & ConceptsSaibel Farishta
Growth and development involve quantitative and qualitative changes over time. Several factors influence physical growth, including heredity, nutrition, illness, socioeconomic status, and psychological factors. Growth occurs in rhythmic patterns with spurts of accelerated growth. Different body tissues and regions grow at different rates and times based on concepts like Scammon's curve of growth and cephalocaudal gradient. Growth data is collected through longitudinal, cross-sectional, and semi-longitudinal studies using quantitative measurements, observations, ratings, and rankings.
This document discusses human growth and development. It begins with a brief history of the study of growth, then defines key terminology like growth, development, differentiation and maturation. It describes the typical cephalocaudal growth pattern from head to feet as well as concepts of variability in growth and developmental age versus chronological age. The document outlines several methods for studying physical growth, from craniometry and anthropometry to radiography and 3D imaging. It discusses factors that can affect growth and growth spurts during development.

Growth modification of different types of malocclusionbilal falahi
This document discusses different types of growth modification appliances used to treat malocclusions. It begins by explaining that growth modification uses remaining growth potential to alter jaw size and positioning. Key appliances discussed include the Andresen activator, twin block, and various types of headgear. Factors like timing of treatment, force magnitude, and duration of force application are reviewed. Both passive and active functional appliances are indicated, with considerations for skeletal, dental, and vertical discrepancies.
1. The document discusses several theories of craniofacial growth including the genetic theory, sutural theory, cartilaginous theory, functional matrix theory, Van Limborgh's multifactorial theory, Enlow's expanding "V" principle, counterpart principle, neurotrophic theory, and servo system theory.
2. The functional matrix theory proposes that bone growth is influenced primarily by function, with soft tissues growing first and bone adapting in response.
3. Van Limborgh's multifactorial theory suggests six factors control growth including intrinsic and epigenetic genetic factors as well as local and general environmental factors.
Growth prediction methods aim to forecast facial bone growth to aid orthodontic treatment planning. Common methods include regression analyses of past growth data, experimental models based on a clinician's experience, and theoretical approaches. Accuracy is limited as growth varies individually. Cephalometric techniques like Moorrees mesh, Johnston's grid, and Ricketts' arcial analysis overlay growth increments on radiographs but have disadvantages like complexity and population-specific constants. Newer methods like C-axis and G-axis vectors attempt to quantify maxillary and mandibular growth respectively. Finite element modeling also uses mathematical tensors to simulate craniofacial growth. Overall, growth prediction provides guidance for treatment but cannot replace clinical judgment of an individual patient's growth potential

The maxilla develops through both intramembranous and endochondral ossification prenatally. Around 4 weeks, the maxillary processes develop from the first branchial arches and grow medially to form the lateral walls of the primitive mouth. The palate develops from the maxillary processes, which give rise to the palatal shelves beginning around 6 weeks. The palatal shelves initially grow vertically but then reorient horizontally between 7-8 weeks to fuse in the midline and form the secondary palate by 8.5 weeks.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

4. Introduction
• Since dentists and orthodontists are heavily
involved in the development of not just the
dentition but the entire dentofacial complex, a
thorough background in craniofacial growth and
development is necessary.
• Growth usually refers to an increase in size or
number. It is largely an anatomic phenomenon.
• Development connotes an increase in degree of
organization; increase in complexity. It is
physiologic and behavioral.
5. GROWTH
• Growth is an increase in size- Todd
• The self multiplication of living substance- JX Huxley
• Increase in size, change in proportion and progressive
complexity- Krogman
• Entire series of sequential anatomic and physiological
changes taking place from the beginning of prenatal
life to senility- Meredith
• Quantitative aspect of biologic development per unit of
time- Moyers
• Change in any morphological parameter which is
measurable- Moss
6. DEVELOPMENT
• Development is progress towards maturity-
Todd
• All natural occurring unidirectional changes in
the life of an individual from the existence as a
single cell to its elaboration as a
multifunctional unit terminating in death-
Moyers
8. Craniometry
• It is based on the measurements of skulls found
among human skeletal remains.
• It was originally used to study the Neanderthal
and Cro-Magon peoples whose skulls were found
in European caves in the 18th and 19th centuries.
• It has been possible to piece together a great deal
of knowledge about extinct populations and to
get some idea of their pattern of growth by
comparing one skull with another.
9.
10. • Advantage- precise measurements can be
made on dry skulls
• Disadvantage- all growth data must be cross-
sectional; the same individual can be
measured at only one point in time.
11. Anthropometry
• Measure skeletal dimensions on living individuals.
• Various landmarks established in the studies of
dry skulls are measured in the living individuals
simply by using soft tissue points overlying these
bony landmarks.
• E.g.: length of the cranium
– From a point at the bridge of the nose to a point at
the greatest convexity of the rear of the skull.
– Can be made on a dried skull or living individual.
– Results would be different because of soft tissue
thickness overlying both landmarks.
12.
13. • Advantage-
– Subject not damaged
– longitudinal data produced
– makes it possible to follow the growth of an
individual directly, making the same
measurements repeatedly at different times.
• Disadvantage- soft tissue overlying the bony
landmarks introduces variations
14. Cephalometric radiography
• The technique depends on precisely orienting
the head in a cephalostat before making a
radiograph, with equally precise control of
magnification.
• Growth studies are done by superimposing a
tracing or digital model of a later on an earlier
one, so that changes can be measured.
15.
16. • Advantage-
– Both location and amount of growth can be
observed
– Combines the advantage of craniometry and
anthropometry
– Allows the same individual to be followed over
time
• Disadvantage- it produces a 2-dimensional
representation of a 3-dimensional structure
17. Three dimensional imaging
• Computed tomography (CT) allows 3-D
reconstruction of the cranium and face.
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) also
provides 3-D images with the advantage that
there is no radiation exposure.
19. Vital staining
• Introduced by John Hunter in the 18th century.
• Dyes that stain mineralizing tissues (or
occasionally, soft tissues) are injected into the
animal.
• These dyes remain in the bones and teeth and
can be detected later after sacrifice of the
animal.
• Examples of stains are: alizarin S, procion,
tetracycline, tryphan blue, fluorochrome.
20. • Alizarin strongly reacts with calcium at sites
where bone calcification is occurring.
• Since these are the sites of active skeletal
growth, the dye marks the locations at which
active growth was occurring when it was
injected.
21.
22. Autoradiography
• The gamma-emitting isotope 99mTc can be
used to detect areas of rapid bone growth in
humans.
• These radioactive materials can be detected
by placing a film emulsion over a thin section
of tissue containing the isotope and then
exposing in the dark by the radiation.
23.
24. Implant radiography
• It was developed by professor Arne Bjork and
coworkers.
• Inert metal pins are placed in bones anywhere in the
skeleton, including face and jaw.
• The metal pins become permanently incorporated in
the bones in the absence of infection or inflammation.
• Superimposing the cephalometric radiographs on
implanted pins allows precise observation of both
changes in the position of one bone relative to another
and changes in the external contours of individual
bones.
25. Sites of implantation
• In Mandible
– Symphysis in the midline below roots
– Right body of the mandible: one below the first
premolar and another below first molar
– Outer surface of ramus on right side in the level of
occlusal plane
– Left body of the mandible (under second premolar
or first molar)
– Using small pins on the right side and larger ones
on the left, the can be recognized easily.
26.
27. • In Maxilla
– Inferior to anterior nasal spine
– Bilaterally in the zygomatic process
• In hard palate
– Behind canines
– Front of first molar in the junction between
alveolar process and palate
30. Growth: Pattern
• Pattern reflects proportionality.
• Pattern in growth is still more complex, because it
refers not just to a set of proportional relationship at a
point in time, but to the change in these proportional
relationship over time.
• The physical arrangement of the body at any one time
is a pattern of spatially proportioned parts. There is a
higher level pattern, the pattern of growth, which
refers to the changes in these spatial proportions over
time.
Growth pattern: i) Cephalocaudal growth gradient
ii) Scammon’s growth curve
31. Cephalocaudal growth gradient
• There is an axis of increased growth extending from
the head towards the feet.
Changes in
the overall
body
proportions
during
normal
growth and
development
.
32. • In fetal life- about the third month of intrauterine
development, head occupies 50% of the total
body length and the head the cranium is larger
relative to the face. The trunk and limbs are
rudimentary.
• At birth:
– head- 39% of total body length
– Legs- 1/3rd of total body length
• In adults:
– Head-12% of total body length
– Legs- ½ of the total body length
• Therefore, with growth, trunk and limbs grow
faster than the head and face
33. Cephalocaudal growth in face
• At birth, the face
(nasomaxillary complex and
mandible) is less developed,
with the cranium representing
more than half of the total
head.
• Maxilla being closer to the
brain/head grows faster and
its growth is completed before
mandibular growth.
• Mandible being away from the
brain, completes its growth
later than the maxilla.
Changes in proportions of
craniofacial region.
34. Scammon’s growth curve
The body tissues can be
broadly classified into
four types.
a. Neural tissue
b. Lymphoid tissue
c. General tissue
d. Genital tissue
Different tissues in the body grow at different times and different rates.
Therefore, the amount of growth accomplished at a particular age is variable.
35. • Neural tissues complete 90% of their growth by 6
yrs and 96% by 10 yrs of age.
• Lymphoid tissues reach 100% adult size by 7 yrs:
proliferate far beyond the adult size in late
childhood (200% by 14 yrs) and involute around
the onset of puberty.
• Somatic tissues show an S-shape curve with the
definite slowing of growth rate during childhood
and acceleration at puberty going on till age 20.
• Growth of the genital tissues accelerate rapidly
around the onset of puberty.
36. Effect of Scammon’s growth in facial
region
• The maxilla follows neural growth pattern and its
growth ceases earlier in life.
• Skeletal problems of the maxilla should be treated
earlier than that of mandible. Eg: growth modification
procedures (facemask) should be given earlier in life
(6yrs) to promote growth of maxilla.
• Mandibular growth follows general growth pattern. Its
growth occurs until about 18-20yrs. Growth
modification treatment (chin cup) should be extended
until cessation of mandibular growth so as to prevent
relapse of class III malocclusion due to continued
growth of mandible.
37. Growth: Variability
• Everyone is not alike in the way that they
grow.
• Variability indicates the degree of difference
between two growing individuals in all four
planes of space including the all-important
time.
• One way to express variability quantitatively is
to evaluate a given child relative to peers on a
standard growth chart.
38. Standard growth chart
• An individual who stood
exactly at midpoint of
normal distribution would
fall along the 50% line of
the graph.
• One who was larger than
90% of the population
would plot above the
90%line.
• One who was smaller
than 90% of the
population would plot
below the 10% line.
39. Application of growth chart
• Location of an individual relative to the group can
be established.
• Used to follow a child over time to evaluate
whether there is an unexpected change in growth
pattern.
• Therefore if the position of an individual relative
to his or her peer group changes and especially if
the changes are marked the clinician should
suspect some growth abnormalities and should
investigate further.
40. Growth: Timing
• Variation in timing arises because the same event
happens for different individuals at different times; the
biologic clock of different individuals is set differently.
• Some children grow rapidly and mature early,
completing their growth quickly and thereby appearing
on the high side of developmental charts until their
growth ceases and their contemporaries begin to
catch-up.
• Others grow and develop slowly and so appear behind,
even though, given time, they will catch up with and
even surpass children who once were larger.
41.
42.
43. Growth spurts
• There are periods of sudden accelerated
growth interspersed with periods of relative
quiescence.
• Such rapid increase in growth rate is termed s
“growth spurt”.
• The timing of growth spurts differ in boys and
girls. Generally, girls precede boys by
approximately 2yrs.
44. Name of spurt Female Male
Infantile/ childhood
growth spurt
3yrs 3yrs
Mixed dentition/
juvenile growth spurt
6-7yrs 7-9yrs
Pre-pubertal/
adolescent growth spurt
11-12yrs 14-15yrs
45. Clinical significance
• To differentiate whether growth changes are
normal or abnormal.
• Treatment of skeletal discrepancies(eg: class II) is
more advantageous if carried out in the mixed
dentition period, especially during growth spurt.
• Arch expansion is carried out during maximum
growth period.
• Orthognathic surgery should be carried out after
the growth ceases.
47. Growth fields
• The outside and inside surfaces of bone are
blanketed by soft tissues, cartilage or
osteogenic membranes.
• Within this, blanket areas are known as
growth fields, which are spread all along the
bone in mosaic pattern, responsible for
producing alteration in the growing bone.
• They have either depository or resorptive
activity.
48.
49. Growth sites
• A site of growth is merely a location at which
growth occurs.
– E.g.: mandibular condyle, maxillary tuberosity
• Show marked response to external influences.
• Do not control the overall growth of the bone.
50. • Sutures of the face
(a,b,c,d,f)
• Mandibular condyle (e)
• Maxillary tuberosity (h)
• All synchondrosis of
cranial base (i)
• Alveolar bone (g)
51. Growth centers
• Growth centre is a location at which
independent (genetically controlled) growth
occurs.
• These are special growth sites which control
the overall growth of bone.
• Respond to functional needs, however show
little response to external influences.
• All centers of growth are sites, but the
converse is not true.
52.
53. Growth at cellular level
• At cellular level, there are three possibilities of
growth.
– Hypertrophy- increase in the size of individual cell
– Hyperplasia- increase in the number of cells
– Secrete extracellular material- thus contributing to an
increase in size independent of the number or size of
cells themselves.
• Secretion of extracellular material is particularly
important in the growth of skeletal system as it
later mineralizes.
54. Growth at tissue level
• Interstitial growth:
– Combination of hypertrophy and hyperplasia
– Occurs at all points within the tissue
– Not possible after mineralization
• Appositional growth:
– Direct addition of new bone to the surface of
existing bone
55. Modes of bone formation
• Endochondral ossification
• Intramembranous ossification
– Bones developed from endochondral ossification
are referred to as cartilagenous bones
– Bones formed by intramembranous ossification
are called membranous bones
57. Endochondral ossification
Mesenchymal
condensation
• At site of bone formation
Chondroblast
• Mesenchymal cells differentiate
into chondroblast
• Lay down hyaline cartilage
Perichondrium
• Surrounds cartilage
• Highly vascular
• Contains osteogenic cells
58. Calcification
• Intercellular substance calcified due to
influence of alkaline phosphatase secreted
by cartilage cells
Primary
areolae
• Cell death due to nutrition cut off
• Forms empty spaces called primary areolae
Secondary
areola
• Blood vessels and osteogenic cells invade
calcified matrix which is reduced to bars
and walls due to eating away of matrix
• Leaves large empty spaces
59. Osteoblast
• Cells from perichondrium become
osteoblast
• Arrange along surface of secondary areolae
Osteoid
• Laid down by osteoblast
• Gets calcified to form lamellar bone
Continued
apposition
• Another layer of osteoid secreted
• Goes on to form bone
60.
61. Intramembranous ossification
Mesenchymal cells aggregate at the
site of bone formation
Soma lay down collagen fibers and
some form osteoblasts
Osteoblasts secrete gelatinous matrix
called osteoid around collagen fibers
62. Deposit Ca salts into osteoid
Osteoid bone lamella
Osteoblast move away from lamella
New layer of osteoid secreted and
calcified
Some osteoblasts get entrapped into
lamellae called osteocytes
63. Modes of ossification of the bones of
the skull
Endochondral Intramembranous Both
•Ethmoid
•Inferior nasal conchae
•Sphenoidal base
•Petrous part of temporal
bone
•Occipital basalis
•Malleus
•Incus
•Stapes
•Maxilla
•Zygomatic bone
•Palatine bone
•Vomer
•Lacrimal bone
•Frontal bone
•Parietal bone
•Squamous and
petrous part of
temporal bone
•Squamous occipitalis
•Occipital
•Sphenoid
•Temporal
•Mandible
64. Mechanisms of bone growth
• Bone remodeling
• Cortical drift
• Displacement
– Primary
– secondary
65. Bone remodeling
• Remodeling is a process of reshaping and
resizing each level within a growing bone as it
is relocated sequentially into a successions of
new levels.
• It is differential growth activity involving
deposition and resorption on the inner and
outer surfaces of bone.
66. Downward relocation of whole palate
Ramus remodeled- bone at the tip of the
condyle at an early age can be found at the
anterior surface of ramus.
67. Types of bone remodelling
• Biomechanical remodelling:
– At molecular level
– Constant deposition and removal of ions to maintain blood
calcium levels and carryout other homeostasis functions.
• Harvesian remodelling:
– Secondary reconstruction of bone
– Rebuilding of cancellous trabecular
• Traumatic remodelling:
– Regeneration and reconstruction of bone
• Growth remodelling:
– Change in size and shape of bone
– Change in proportion and relationship of bone with adjacent
structures
68. Cortical drift
• A combination of bone deposition and
resorption resulting in a growth movement
towards the depositing surface is called as
cortical drift.
– Rate of deposition and resorption equal- thickness
remains constant
– Deposition exceeds resorption- thickness
gradually increases
– Resorption exceeds deposition- thickness
decreases
69. combination of bone deposition and
resorption resulting in a growth
movement towards the depositing surface
70. Displacement
• It is a separate movement of the whole bone
by some physical force that carries it, in toto,
away from its contacts with other bones,
which are also growing and increasing in the
overall size at the same time.
• Two kinds of displacement:
– Primary displacement
– Secondary displacement
74. Factors affecting physical growth
• Genetic
• Growth hormones and growth factors
• Nutrition
• Illness
• Race
• Socio-economic status
• Secular trends
• Season and circadian rhythm
• Psychological stress
• Family size and birth order
• Exercise
75. Genetic
• The genes have the basic control of growth
including rate, timing and magnitude.
• However, the final outcome depends on the
interaction between the genetic potential and
environmental factors.
• The homeobox gene is important in the
establishment of body plan, pattern formation
and morphogenesis.
• The whole family of transforming growth factor-
beta genes is known to be important in
regulating cell growth and organ development.
76. Twin study
• Useful in study of population genetics.
• Began in 1870’s by Sir Francis Galton-article stating that
nature was a stronger factor than nurture in
determining respective characteristics of twins.
• This method is one of the most effective methods
available for investigating genetically determined
variables in orthodontics as well as in other medical
fields, depending on the variance in the shape and the
size of skull and teeth on genetic and environmental
influences.
• Twins:
– Monozygotic
– Dizygotic
77. • Markovic (1992)
– Carried out cephalometric study of 114 class II div 2
malocclusions, 48 twin pairs and 6 sets of triplets.
– MZ twins- 100% concordance
– DZ twins- 90% discordant
• Evidence from study by Lauweryns et al, 1995 has
indicated strong genetic influence in masticatory
muscle pattern in class II div 2 malocclusion.
78. • Schulze and Weise 1965, studied mandibular
prognathism in MZ and DZ twins and reported
that concordance in MZ twins was 6 times higher.
• Watnick 1972
– Studied 35 pairs of MZ and 35 pairs of DZ like-sexed
twins using lateral cephalogram.
– He concluded that certain areas such as the lingual
symphysis, lateral surface of ramus and frontal
curvature of mandible are predominantly under
genetic control.
– Other areas such as antegonial notch are
predominantly affected by environmental factors.
79. • Various developmental dental disorders,
which are under the influence of genes,
include
– Hypodontia
– Supernumerary teeth
– Abnormal tooth shape
– Submerged primary molars
– Ectopic eruption and transposition of canines
80. • Grahnen in 1956 in his familial and twin studies
concluded that in children with missing teeth, upto half
of their siblings or parents also had missing teeth.
• Dermaut and Smith in 1986 studied the prevalence of
tooth agenesis correlated with jaw relationship and
dental crowding in 185 patients and found that
hypodontia occurred more often in girls than in boys.
• Alvesalo and Portin 1992 found that missing and
malformed lateral incisors may be result of a common
gene defect.
• Helpin and Ducan 1986 found that in MZ twins there is
high rate of concordance of submerged primary
molars.
81. • Robert S. Corruccini, Rosario Potter
– Conducted a study on the occlusal characteristics in
32 pairs of monozygotic twins and 28 pairs of dizygotic
twins using stone casts.
– They studied arch shape, size, and symmetry, overjet,
overbite, posterior cross bite, buccal segment relation,
rotations and displacement.
– They concluded that arch size variation, tooth
displacement and cross bite showed significant
genetic variance. They also concluded an increased
environmental component of variance in occlusion.
82. Growth hormones and factors
• All tissues respond to growth hormone and
produce a proportional body growth that slows
after puberty when secretion of hormone
decreases.
• Growth factors affecting growth
– Insulin like growth factor- I and II
– Platelet derived growth factor
– Epidermal growth factor
– Vascular endothelial growth factor
– Transforming growth factor
83. Hypopituitarism
• Before puberty, the hypofunctioning of pituitary
leads to dwarfism (growth hormone deficiency).
• Clinical manifestation:
– Eruption rate and shedding time of teeth delayed, as
in the growth of body in general.
– Clinical crowns appear smaller than normal.
– Roots of teeth are shorter than normal.
– Dental arch is smaller than normal, cannot
accommodate all the teeth, malocclusion develops.
86. Hyperpituitarism
• Leads to gigantism (before epiphysis of long bone
closed) or acromegaly (after epiphyseal closure)
• Gigantism:
– Broad enlarged nose, thick and furrowed skin
– Skeletal: frontal bossing and prognathic mandible
– May develop Class III malocclusion with interdental
spacing
– Hypercementosis is a common finding.
– Roots may be longer than normal.
87.
88. • Acromegaly:
– Terminal phalanges of hands and feet become
large.
– Lips become thick.
– Tongue becomes enlarged and indentations on
the sides from pressure against teeth.
– Mandible becomes large (accelerated condylar
growth), prognathism may be extreme.
– Mandibular teeth usually tipped to buccal or labial
side, owing to enlargement of tongue.
91. Hypothyroidism
• Base of the skull is shortened, leading to a retraction of
bridge of nose with flaring.
• Wide face, fails to develop in longitudinal direction.
• Mandible underdeveloped, maxilla overdeveloped.
• Dental changes, as reviewed by Hinrichs (presented 36
cases)
– Tongue enlarged by edema, may protrude continuously,
leading to malocclusion.
– Eruption rate of teeth delayed.
– Retained deciduous teeth.
92. Euryprosopic facial form with
puffiness, periorbital swelling and
widened nasal bridge
Delayed fusion of intracranial
sutures
99. Growth factors
• Proteins that bind to receptors on cell surface,
with primary result of activating cellular
proliferation and/or differentiation.
• Can be growth stimulators or inhibitors.
• Effect mediated through surface receptors on
target cells.
• Effect of growth factors is regulated through a
complex system of feedback loops, which involve
other growth factors, enzymes and binding
proteins.
100. Growth factors Effects
Fibroblast GF Increase osteoblastic precursor
population and also increase collagen
synthesis
Insulin-like GF Increase bone cell proliferation and total
protein synthesis
Transforming GF
Platelet derived GF
Increase proliferation of osteoprogenitor
and total protein synthesis
Interleukin 1 At low doses, it stimulates collagen
synthesis but is inhibitor in higher
concentrations.
101. Nutrition
• Malnutrition may affect all aspects of growth
including size of parts, body proportions, quality
and texture of tissues, and onset of growth
events.
• The effects of malnutrition are reversible to a
certain extent. If the adverse effects are not too
severe, the growth process accelerates when
proper nutrition is provided. This is called catch-
up growth.
102. Protein Energy malnutrition
• Spectrum of disease
– Kwashiorkor: deficiency of proteins
– Marasmus: severe and prolonged restriction of food
– Marasmic kwashiorkor: clinical features of both
disorders
• Some children adapt to this by nutritional
dwarfism
• Has higher incidence in India, south east Asia,
parts of Africa, Middle East, South and Central
America
103. Marasmus
• Greater clinical importance than Kwashiorkar
• Retarded growth
• Loss of weight
• Wasting of muscles
• Pigmentation changes in skin
• Hypotension
• Weakness
• Edema
104.
105. Kwoshiorkar
• Child’s weight well below standard for age; may be
masked by edema due to hypoalbuminemia
• Child prone to infections
• Physical stunting
• Overall growth and growth of jaws decreased
• Eruption delayed, incisor and molar growth retarded
• Enamel exhibit increased acid solubility
• Increased dental caries
• Gingival and periodontal membranes exhibit
degeneration.
106.
107. Avitaminosis
• Vitamin A deficiency:
– Enamel forming cells are disturbed, enamel matrix
arrested or poorly defined, calcification is
disturbed, enamel hypoplasia results.
– Dentin is atypical in structure, lacking normal
tubular arrangement and containing cellular and
vascular inclusions.
– Higher caries scores
– Eruption rate retarded
– Alveolar bone retarded in its rate of formation
109. • Vitamin D deficiency:
– Cessation of calcification of epiphysial disks.
– Developmental abnormalities of dentine and
enamel
– Delayed eruption
– Misalignment of teeth in the jaws
– Higher caries index
111. • Vitamin C deficiency:
– Atrophy and disorganization of odontoblasts-
irregularly laid down dentin with few, irregularly
arranged tubules.
– Atrophic changes of alveolar bone.
– Scurvy- interdental and marginal gingiva bright red,
swollen, boggy, ulcerated and bleeds
– Severe chronic cases- swelling of periodontal
membranes occur, followed by loss of bone and
loosening of teeth.
• Riboflavin deficiency:
– Affects nasolabial folds and alae nasi, which exhibit
scaly greasy dermatits.
112.
113. Illness
• Illness can be generally due to nutritional
deficiencies, and also due to compromised
immunity.
• Chronic illness can lead to growth retardation,
either because of illness itself, or because of
treatments required for it.
• Long term administration of systemic
corticosteroids (for treating bowel disease,
asthma, cystic fibrosis, bone marrow transplant,
etc) is a major cause of impaired growth.
115. Psychological conditions
• It is seen that children experiencing stressful conditions
display an inhibition of growth hormone secretion.
Hence can markedly retard growth.
• Emotional distress and worry interferes with digestion
and elimination, disturbs sleep, and affects circulation.
• Continued over a long period of childhood might affect
growth.
• E.g.: marked retardation in growth seen in French and
German children during and immediately after the First
World War
• Short stature is also commonly perceived to be
associated with social and psychological disadvantage.
116. Family size and birth order
• Studies show that first born babies tend to
weigh less at birth and have smaller stature,
but better I.Q.
• The smaller the family size, better will be the
nutrition and other favourable conditions.
117. Socioeconomic factors
• Children brought up in affluent and favourable
socio-economic conditions show earlier onset of
growth events.
• They also grow to a larger size than those living in
unfavourable socioeconomic environment.
• Elementary school children in slums have been
found to average 3 to 5 inches shorter and 8 to 12
pounds lighter than children from good
neighbourhoods.

121. Race
• There seems to be some evidence that race
does play a role in growth process.
• For example in American Blacks, calcification
and eruption of teeth occurs almost a year
earlier than their White counterparts.
• Although it can be attributed to other
nutritional and environmental factors.
122.
123. Secular trends
• Changes in size and maturation in a large
population can be shown to occur with time.
• For example: 15 yr old boys are approximately
5 inches taller than the same age group 50 yrs
back.
• It could possibly be due to changes in socio-
economic conditions and food habits.
• Although children are growing at a faster rate,
they are also stopping growth sooner.

126. Season and circadian rhythm
• Seasonal variation have been shown to affect adipose tissue
content and weight of new born babies.
• Growth in height is faster in spring than in autumn, whereas
weight growth is faster in autumn.
• Growth in height and eruption of teeth appears to be greater
at night than in the daytime due to fluctuations in the
hormone release.
127. Exercise
• Development of motor skills and increase in
muscle mass is found to be influenced by
exercise.
• An exercise-associated GH secretion is a response
to acute or prolonged exercise-induced fuel
shortage that directs the metabolism towards
utilization of lipids and promotes growth.
• Exercise provides the necessary mechanical stress
for growth and remodelling of the
musculoskeletal system.
