Skull and jaw growth are described mathematically as a dynamic process. Graphs of the growth process show that basically the rate of growth decreases monotonically with increasing age. The maximum rate of growth was recorded at the time of eruption of the deciduous dentition during the first 4 months of life. As expected, the changes in the measured angles were greatest during the first 3 or 4 months after birth.
