Abstract
The understanding of facial growth and occlusal development plays an important role in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning of problems encountered in dental and skeletal malocclusions. This article reviews the growth of the craniofacial complex, how we can modify growth in the maxilla and mandible, and suggests possible ways to enhance orthopedic changes in our every day orthodontic practice.
