4. Introduction
Since Cephalometrics introduced in 1930,
originally used to reveal The Anatomy of head
Longitudinal study is possible, soon employed
to test various Concepts of mechanisms of
postnatal growth of head
www.indiandentalacademy.com
6. • Until the use of metallic
implants the extent to
which the mand & maxilla
rotate during growth was
not appreciated
• The Rotation tends to be
masked by surface
remodeling
www.indiandentalacademy.com
7. • Lande in 1952 observed that the lower border
of the mand becomes less steeply inclined
• The phrase “GROWTH ROTATION” was
introduced in 1955 by Bjork
• With the use of metallic implants, He could
infer the sites & amt of growth & resorption
• Superimposing 2 consecutive tracings
showed that the older Mand rotated
www.indiandentalacademy.com
11. TERMINOLOGIES
• 1965-Schudy introduced clockwise and
counterclockwise rotation.
• 1969-Bjork discussed different directions
of rotation of the mandibular implant line
and the relation of these to mandibular
form.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
12. • 1970-Odegard described rotation as the
change in the orientation that can occur
between implant line and lower border of the
mandible.
• 1977-Lavergne and Gasson described the
terms Positional and Morphogenetic
rotations.
• 1983-Bjork and Skieller gave the termsTotal rotation.
Matrix rotation.
Intramatrix rotation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
13. • 1985-Dibbets introduced the term
Counterbalancing rotation.
• 1988-Solow,Houston
True rotation.
Apparent rotation.
Angular remodeling of the lower border.
• Proffit- used the terms
Internal rotation.
Total rotation .
External rotation.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. TOTAL ROTATION / TRUE ROTATION /
INTERNAL ROTATION
• Is the rotation of the mandibular corpus
and is measured as a change in
inclination of the implant line, in the
mandibular corpus relative to the
anterior cranial base.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
17. If the implant line rotates forwards, the total
rotation is designated as Negative
The Total Forward Rotation is indicated by
converging sella – nasion lines
www.indiandentalacademy.com
19. MATRIX ROTATION / APPARENT
ROTATION / TOTAL ROTATION
• Rotation of the soft tissue matrix of the
mandible relative to the Anterior cranial base
• The soft tissue matrix is defined by the
Tangential mandibular line(ML1)
• Is designated as Negative,when Tangential
mandibular line rotates forwards
www.indiandentalacademy.com
20. The matrix rotates forwards & backwards in same
individual during the growth period – PENDULUM
MOVEMENT
Center of Rotation – Condyles
www.indiandentalacademy.com
22. INTRAMATRIX ROTATION/
ANGULAR REMODELING/
EXTERNAL ROTATION
Defined as the change in inclination of an
implant line in the mandibular corpus
relative to the tangential mandibular line
Intramatrix Rotation is an expression of
remodeling at the lower border of the mandible
www.indiandentalacademy.com
24. • Forward Rotation of the corpus relative to the
tangential mand line is recorded as Negative
• Center of rotation is somewhere in the corpus
• Depends on rotation of corpus of mand &
rotation of maxilla & occlusion of teeth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. • The diff b/n Total Rotation & Matrix Rotation is
intramatrix Rotation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
29. • According to Bjork & Skieller’
“Intramatrix” concept
First,the mandible “wiggles” with in the
matrix
Second,this “wiggling” is associated
predominantly with the corpus, but is
caused by the growing condyle
Third, Rotation results from or compensates
for, a genetically determined program

+
IntraMatrix Rotation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
32. • The center of Total Rotation depends on other
two centers of Rotation
• The pattern of vertical facial development is
strongly related to the Rotation of both the jaws
• For an average individual with normal vertical
facial height
• Total Rotation = – 15
Matrix Rotation = –4
IntraMatrix Rotation = –11
www.indiandentalacademy.com
34. Morphogenetic Rotation
• concerns the shape of the mandible itself
• super imposing the two tracings on a line through
condylion & pogonion
•The angle b/n two implant lines is determined &
this corresponds to the degree of morphogenetic
Rotation
• similer to Bjork’s Intramatrix Rotation but not
identical
www.indiandentalacademy.com
35. Bjork & Skieller
consider the key factor of Intramatrix rotation to
be found in a rotation of the mandibular corpus
inside its matrix
Lavergne & GassonFound the effective
mechanism in Ramus, its
forward or backward
growth,therby shortening or
elongating the effective
length of the mandible
www.indiandentalacademy.com
36. • Maxillary – Mandibular sagittal discrepancy is
minimized by opening or closing the gonial angle
www.indiandentalacademy.com
37. “It is a compensating mechanism which is
capable of enlarging or reducing
mandibular length as measured along the
condylion-pogonion diagonal”
www.indiandentalacademy.com
38. J.M.H.Dibbets
• Re-examination of the concept of
“Intramatrix Rotation" as defined by Bjork
& Skieller & also explored by Lavergne &
Gasson
• Three diff interpretations of Intramatrix
concept are
www.indiandentalacademy.com
39. • First option - Bjork & Skieller
define the “Intramatrix Rotation” as
The Rotation of the mandibular corpus
relative to the lower border is a result of
genetically determined condylar growth
both in magnitude & in direction
www.indiandentalacademy.com
40. Bjork approach
Superimposing two tracings of the same mandible registered
upon natural reference structures shows Rotation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
41. Divergence of implant lines indicates
Intramatrix rotation
Superimposed on implant markers
Indicates extensive remodeling
www.indiandentalacademy.com
42. • The condyle grows on a circular arc with radius
from center at chin to the condyle.
• When two tracings are superimposed on their
contours, they are identical in size & shape.
• The external configuration of mandible need not
change in order to allow ‘Intramatrix rotation’
• Any Depositional or Resorptive activity maintains
original contours
www.indiandentalacademy.com
43. Painting rotated with in frame but external configuration &
dimensions do not change
www.indiandentalacademy.com
44. • The bony element can rotate with in its
periosteal frame
• Every deflection of condylar growth
creates the possibility of compensatory
remodeling, mostly resorption of the lower
border resulting in Intramatrix rotation
• Intramatrix Rotation neutralizes the
condylar growth.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
45. Second option-Hunterian concept
or Morphogenetic rotation
Posterior ramal deposition &
Ant resorption
The direction of condylar growth
follows pattern that enlarges the
Mandible maximally
www.indiandentalacademy.com
46. Third option - Dibbets
• Two divergent patterns of mandibular growth
• 1)Circular growth pattern of condyle, resulting in
Intramatrix Rotation without any enlargement of
mandible
• 2)linear growth pattern of the condyle,
characterized by the absence of intramatrix rotation
but evidencing mandibular enlargement.
suggested mechanism
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Counterbalancing Rotation
47. Counterbalancing Rotation
“Counterbalancing Rotation pertains to circular condylar
growth, accompanied by selective coordinated remodeling,
which does not contribute to the incremental growth of the
mandible”
*The actual path of the mand condyle is accompanied by selective
remodeling & thus neutralizes the growth
* Results in selective enlargement of the mandible, apart &
distinct from mechanisms that have been described in the
literature
www.indiandentalacademy.com
48. Counterbalancing proportion
Defined as the percentage of condylar
incremental growth, detected by implants that
has contributed to the enlargement of the
condylion- pogonion dimension
• The quantification & comparison of condylar
growth & mandibular enlargement
www.indiandentalacademy.com
50. • According to the concept of congruous mandibular
growth, the proportion expected is 100%.
• But the proportion ranges from 50% to 97%.
• Average counterbalancing proportion for Angle classes
Class III – 85%
Class I – 76%
Class II Div 2 – 59%
Class II Div 1– 65.5%
Effective contribution vary among individuals because of
varying condylar directions & mand remodeling
www.indiandentalacademy.com
54. Ramus
• Ramus undergoes remodeling to carryout
following functions
• Place the corpus in constant functional
relationship with maxillary arch
• To bridge the pharyngeal compartment
• To accommodate the vertical dimension of
nasomaxillary complex
• Give attachment to the growing masticatory
musculature. www.indiandentalacademy.com
57. Opening and closing of the gonial angle
compensates for extreme forward or backward
rotation
www.indiandentalacademy.com
58. • Vertical growth changes of the mandibular
dento-alveolar arch, the ramus & middle
cranialfossae must match nasomaxillary
growth to achieve facial balance
• Any diff will lead to Displacement mand
Rotations
www.indiandentalacademy.com
59. Displacement rotations
• Changes in the junctional contact with the
cranial floor and maxilla.
• Cranial base angleOpen-downward and backward rotation of
mandible.
Closed-forward rotation.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
62. Vertically short midface causes forward
rotation & upward inclination of mandible
www.indiandentalacademy.com
63. Long nasomaxillary region causes downward
& backward alignment of mandible
www.indiandentalacademy.com
64. Schudy’s concept
• The Rotation of the mandible resulting from an
inhormony b/n vertical growth & horizontal
growth
• Counter clockwise Rotation deficiency of vertical growth compared to
horizontal growth & tends to cause closed bite
• Clockwise Rotation –
excessive vertical growth compared to horizontal
growth & tends to cause open bite
www.indiandentalacademy.com
67. Vertical elements of growth
• Growth at nasion
• Growth of maxillary corpus
• Growth of max post alveolar processes
• Growth of mand post alveolar processes
www.indiandentalacademy.com
68. Posterior growth analysis
The ratio b/n horizontal growth
& Vertical growth
A= I+ II + III
www.indiandentalacademy.com
70. Forward Rotation – 3 Types
Type – I
Center- TMJ
Deep bite
↓ Ant facial height
Lower dental arch compressed in to upper
Cause-occlusal imbalance due to loss of teeth/powerful
www.indiandentalacademy.com
musculature
71. • Type II
• Center- incisal edges of lower ant teeth
• Marked development of post facial height &
normal ↑ ant facial height
• ↑ Post facial height
Lowering of middle cranial fossae
increase in height of ramus
www.indiandentalacademy.com
72. Vertical direction of the
condylar growth lowered
the mandible more than it
is carried forward
Muscular & ligamentus
attachments Carries the
lowered mandible forward
Lower border undergoes characteristic remodeling
www.indiandentalacademy.com
73. Type III
Center of rotation - premolars
The dental arches compressed
in to each other & basal deep
bite develops
Cause – Anomalous occlusion of
ant teeth
www.indiandentalacademy.com
74. • The inclination of teeth is greatly
influenced by rotation of jaws
• Displaces the path of eruption of teeth in
mesial direction
• Ant crowding referred as packing
www.indiandentalacademy.com
75. Backward Rotation –two Types
Type I
Center - TMJ
underdevelopment of
post facial height leads
to Backward Rotation
Causes- the middle Cranial
fossae is rised
-Incomplete development in
height of middle cranial
www.indiandentalacademy.com
fossae as in oxycephaly
76. Type II
• Center – Most distal occluding molars
• Cause - Sagittal growth direction of condyle
• The symphysis is swung backwards & chin
drawn back
• Double chin
www.indiandentalacademy.com
77. Basal open bite develops
Lower ant teeth retroclined &
alveolar prognathism is reduced
Rotation did not lie in the
over eruption of lower teeth
This type of rotation is characteristic in condylar hypoplasia &
In condylar aplasia
www.indiandentalacademy.com
78. Mandibular growth
Rotation is closely
associated with both
the direction & the
amount of growth at
the condyles
www.indiandentalacademy.com
81. Bjork & Skieller
Implant studies of Bjork & Skieller have
shown that, The downward & forward
displacement of maxillae are associated
with varying degrees of vertical Rotation
Internal Rotation produced with in the core
of maxilla tends to be masked by surface
changes & alterations in the rate of teeth
eruption
www.indiandentalacademy.com
82. • The maxilla is less easy to delude in to
core of bone & functional processes
• Alveolar process is functional process but
no areas of muscle attachment
www.indiandentalacademy.com
83. • Lateral implants – 4yrs of age, inserted in the
zygomatic process two on each side, antly on the
lower margin away from the crest
•Indicates increase in width
of median suture at the
level of first molars
www.indiandentalacademy.com
84. • Anterior implants – 10yrs of age, inserted below the
anterior nasal spine on each side of median suture
at the level of apices of central incisors
www.indiandentalacademy.com
86. Transverse / Mutual Rotation of two
Maxillae
Triangle is constructed with the sides of
constant length by joining ant & lateral implants
www.indiandentalacademy.com
87. • Lateral implants separate more than ant
implants
• Two maxillae rotate in relation to each other
in transverse plane
• Length of the maxilla is reduced in mid
sagittal plane
• Length of dental arch becomes reduced
www.indiandentalacademy.com
89. Vertical Rotation
A line from tip of ant implant to
Lateral implant is drawn on
profile radiograph
Tracings shows change in
inclination of implant line to the
SN plane at diff ages
www.indiandentalacademy.com
90. The inclination of nasal floor to ant cranial base is
maintained by differential remodeling
In forward rotation – the
resorption at nasal floor
is greater antly than
postly
Facial growth is
greater postly
www.indiandentalacademy.com
91. In backward Rotation Rotates downwards & backwards
Resorption at nasal floor
is greater postly
Facial growth is greater
antly than postly
www.indiandentalacademy.com
96. • Displacement in clockwise/counterclockwise
direction would result in canting & misfit of the
palate & maxillary arch in to either open / closed bite
positions
• Remodeling fields along nasal & oral sides of the
palate offset & compensate
www.indiandentalacademy.com
100. Longitudinal method
• The course of development in annual x-ray
Cephalometric films
• Superimposed on natural reference strs
www.indiandentalacademy.com
102. Limitations
Pattern of growth is not constant
•
permits observation of changes only in sagittal
direction
• Changes in vertical direction are masked to
larger extent
www.indiandentalacademy.com
103. Metric method
• Prediction of facial development on basis of facial
morphology ,determined from a single x-ray
• Statistical studies – predicting the intensity & direction of
development from shape & size at childhood is not feasible
• The changes in shape of face during adolescence weakly
correlated with shape of face at 12yrs
www.indiandentalacademy.com
104. Structural method
• Based on information gained from implant
studies of mandibular remodeling process
• Recognizes specific structural signs
develop as a result of remodeling
• Various types of rotations can be
recognized with implant method
www.indiandentalacademy.com
105. Structural signs
• Seven structural signs of extreme growth rotation
• Considered in relation to condylar growth direction
• Greater the number, more reliable the prediction will be.
• Signs are not clearly developed before puberty
www.indiandentalacademy.com
106. • Inclination of condylar head
• Curvature of the mandibular canal
• The shape of the lower border of the mandible
• Inclination of the symphysis
• Interincisal angle
• Interpremolar and molar angles
www.indiandentalacademy.com
• Lower anterior face height
119. • But Baumrind & Rodney lee contradicted
findings of Bjork et al very strongly
www.indiandentalacademy.com
120. • The study conducted in our Department by violet
barbosa,
• Lower gonial angle
• Inclination of condylar head
• Inclination of symphysis are reliable signs to
predict the type of rotation
• Limited extent
www.indiandentalacademy.com
121. Interaction b/n Rotation & Tooth
eruption
• Rotational pattern greatly influences the
magnitude & direction of eruption
• Superimposition on mand lower borderno change in incisor eruption
www.indiandentalacademy.com
122. Forward Rotation
• Superimposition on implants – forward directed
path of eruption
• Forward migration of whole dentition
• Anterior crowding
• Lower post teeth- more upright
• Increase in interpremolar & intermolar angles
www.indiandentalacademy.com
123. Average values:
Mandibular arch
Mean forward migration of mandibular molars 5.2mm.
Lower central incisors-3.2mm.
Shortening of the dental arch-2.0mm.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
124. Average values:
• Maxillary arch
-Mesial migration I molars-5mm
-central incisors-2.5mm
Shortening of arch-1mm+1.5mm
www.indiandentalacademy.com
125. Backward Rotation
• Incisors become retroclined
• Alv prognathism is reduced
• Eruption of lower molars – hindered
• Interpremolar& intermolar angles are
small
www.indiandentalacademy.com
126. • Proffit
-The lower mandibular teeth erupt in upward and
forward direction.
-Forward rotation –alters the path of eruptiondirected posteriorly.

influences paths of eruption
• Serious risk of extreme migration after
extractions
• Extractions should be avoided until the
beginning of pubertal growth spurt
