DR. GOTTLIEB
Is there good growth and bad growth?
 DR. ENLOW

occur, unless pathology is involved. Most
structural dysplasias, of course, are in

The Counterpart Analysis
Growth

of any given facial or cranial part
relates specifically to other structural and
geometric counterparts in the face and
cranium” – Enlow
As

the cranial flexure decreases, the maxilla
is translated or displaced forward and
downward to give a more protrusive
maxillary position. www.indiandentalacademy.com
