DISCUSSION


Subtelny [AJO 1959;45:481-507],
- first demonstrated downward and forward growth of
mandible during maturity.
-nose grows more vertically when compared to its
growth in sagittal dimension.



Meng etal [AJO1988 ],

-Supported the subtelny conclusions

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM


Scott [Br.Dent J 1953;95:37-43],
- Nasal septum is determinant of midfacial growth



Lathum [J Anat 1970;107:47-78],
-nasal septum acted as a starter mechanism ,pulling
the premaxillae and maxillae forward via the so
called septo-premaxillary ligaments

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM


Grymer et al [Rhinology 1997;35: Abstract],

- Deficient nasal septum growth along with decreased
anteroposterior growth of the maxilla leads to an
upward displacement of the anterior part of the
maxilla indicating a strong relationship between nasal
growth and inclination of the maxillary plane.

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM


Robinson et al [AJO 1986;89:499-506],

-Their cephalometric study on the
relationship between skeletal facial pattern and soft
tissue nasal form concluded that nasal shape followed
the underlying skeletal pattern very closely in the
sagittal dimension.

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM


Peter H. Buschang [JCO 1992;26:111-118],

-Horizontal growth at pr and sn is closely associated
with horizontal growth at ANS and A POINT

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM
CONCLUSION

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM
-Nasal length was seen to be significantly correlated to
upper anterior facial height and inclination of palatal
plane.

-An upturned nose in an adult individual was
significantly correlated with anti-clockwise rotation
of maxilla.

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM
-SIgnificant correlation is present between nasal
projection and nasal length with sagittal
maxillary dimensions.

WWW.INDIANDENTALACADEMY.COM


Growth and development of any structure will
occur in three dimensions of space simultaneously
and the overlying integument adapts in three
dimensions.so,its wise to understand the concept
in three dimensions of space than analyzing in one
or two dimensions.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Integument is derived from the Latin word "integumentum", which literally means "a covering". As a general term in biology the word "integument" refers most commonly to the natural covering of an organism or an organ, such as its skin, husk, shell, or rind and then onwards determines HOMEOSTASIS and the MORPHOLOGICAL GROWTH of underlying structures.YES it follows the underlying skeleton pattern, but initially it determines the underlying skeleton pattern growth and developmentand laterit adopts itself in camouflaging according to the DETERINANTS of the same (growth and development)

  3. As There exists a strong relationship between nasal morphology and maxillary skeletal pattern. It is essential to have a knowledge about this relationship for proper orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. Therefore the primary purpose of this study was to
