What is Craniofacial Growth Mechanisms Explained about?

The document discusses basic mechanisms of craniofacial growth. It states that growth occurs through growth areas rather than active growth centers, and involves conversion of cartilage, sutural bone deposition, and periosteal remodeling. Craniofacial growth continues into late adolescence and its regulation is still not fully understood. The development of the skull involves growth at different rates in different directions resulting in changes to the size and shape of bones over time.
