- 31. Frontal Sinus Radiographs taken at yearly intervals. Average yearly growth velocity (millimeters per year) of the frontal sinus was calculated
- 32. Frontal Sinus From longitudinal growth data of the subjects, the average yearly body height growth velocity (millimeters per year) was calculated
- 33. Frontal Sinus Frontal sinus growth velocity at puberty is closely related to body height growth velocity. Frontal sinus growth shows a well-defined pubertal peak (Sp) which on the average occurs 1.5 yr after body ht. peak
- 34. Midpalatine Suture1 Amount of approximation of the midpalatal suture compared with stages of ossification of the hand- wrist according to the Fishman’s system 1- Bernal Revalo, Fishman. Maturational evaluation of ossification of the mid palatal suture, AJO MARCH 1994
- 35. Midpalatine Suture Key landmarks - Point A→ most anterior point of premaxilla Point B→ most posterior point on the posterior wall of the incisive foramen Point P→ Point on the line tangent to the posterior walls of the greater palatine foramen
- 36. Midpalatine Suture • A-P (total dimension of the suture) • A-B (anterior dimension of the suture) • B-P (posterior dimension of the suture) • Percentage of osseous development were recorded
- 37. Midpalatine Suture Results Increase in sutural approximation as SMI stages progressed. SMI 1&2- decreased sutural approx. After SMI 9- significant increase in the sutural approx. No significant difference b/n sexes.
- 38. Midpalatine Suture Conclusion: Best to accomplish ME-before SMI 9. Ideal time- SMI 1- 4 Less orthopedic force required. Mid palatal approx. occurs more posteriorly.
- 39. Conclusion Chronological age of an individual is often not sufficient to assess the development age and somatic maturity of the patient Skeletal age derived from Hand-wrist radiograph and cervical vertebra radiograph provide a reliable and efficient means of assessment. Frontal sinus & midpalatine sutute evaluation are the new approaches for the skeletal maturity assessment

Editor's Notes
- GP is ofen required in O becauze Rate of facial growth n % of facial growth remaining plays imp role in making decisions regarding growth modification or orthognathic surgery
- Skeletal age- Most reliable age for assessment of growth for orthodontic purposes Most commonly used skeleton- Hand-wrist and cervical vertebra
- Idea introduced by Roland in 1896

- In the majority of healthy children, there is an established sequence of ossification for the carpal, metacarpal and phalangeal bones, which is constant and the same for both sexes. First ossification center to appear in hand and wrist radiographs is the capitate, and the last is, most often, the sesamoid of the adductor pollicis of the thumb
- In different categories of human development, the specific ossification centers can be considered as a best predictors of skeletal maturity.
- The ossification centers of the capitate and hamate become apparent at about 3 months of age and remain the only useful observable features for the next six months.
- ossification centers for the epiphyses of all phalanges and metacarpals become recognizable usually in the middle finger first, and the fifth finger last
- ossification centers for the epiphyses of all phalanges and metacarpals become recognizable usually in the middle finger first, and the fifth finger last
- ossification centers for the epiphyses of all phalanges and metacarpals become recognizable usually in the middle finger first, and the fifth finger last
- ossification centers for the epiphyses of all phalanges and metacarpals become recognizable usually in the middle finger first, and the fifth finger last
- Assessment of Skeletal maturity is based on the epiphyseal size of the phalanges Epiphyses increase in width and thickness and becomes as wide as the metaphyses. Mainly emphasis is given in the distal phalanges than to the middle phalanges, and even less in the proximal phalanges.
- Epiphyses at this stage continue to grow and their widths become greater than the metaphyis Contours of the epiphyses begin to overlap, or cap, the metaphyses. Sesamoid in the tendon of the abductor pollicis, just medial to the head of the first metacarpal, become recognizable during puberty.
- Assessments of skeletal maturity in this stage are primarily based on the degree of epiphyseal fusion of the distal phalanges Since all carpal bones have now attained their early adult shape, they are of less value for determination of bone age.

- all carpals, metacarpals and phalanges are completely developed, assessments of skeletal maturity are based on the degree of epiphyseal fusion of the ulna and radius.
- Contains pictures of the handwrist for different chronological ages and for each sex Patients radiograoph is matched with the photographs of atlas
- use of cervical vertebrae to determine skeletal maturity was suggested by Lamparski ¡n 1972.
- . Presence or absence of a concavity at the lower border of the body of C2, C3, and C4
- Skeletal parameters, such as hand wrist bones ossification, have been considered to cause an additional radiation exposure. To avoid such situation, new approaches as the cervical vertebrae maturation have been proposed.

- The key landmarks and planes were identified: Point A, most anterior point of the premaxilla, Point B, most posterior point on the posterior wall of the incisive foramen; and Point P, point on the line tangent to the posterior walls of the greater palatine foramen
- The key landmarks and planes were identified: Point A, most anterior point of the premaxilla, Point B, most posterior point on the posterior wall of the incisive foramen; and Point P, point on the line tangent to the posterior walls of the greater palatine foramen
- Very large increases in approximation are evident during the late maturation period, from SMI 8 to 11. There is no significant difference between the amount of midpalatal sutural approximation between the male and female groups, although the male values were slightly higher in numerical value.
