GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
MANDIBLE IN COMPLETE DENTURE
INTRODUCTION
The mandible is derived from Latin word
mandibula, "jawbone.
Also referred as inferior maxillary bone
Is the largest and strongest bone of the
face, serves for the reception of the lower
teeth. It consists of a curved, horizontal
portion, the body, and two perpendicular
portions, the rami.
OSTEOLOGY OF MANDIBLE
BODY OF MANDIBLE
corpus mandibulae
INCISIVE FOSSA
It is a depression that lies just
below the incisor teeth on the either side of
the symphysis.
10
11
MYLOHYOID LINE
It extends upward and backward on either side
from the lower part of the symphysis .(figure b)
It gives origin to the mylohyoid.
posterior part of this line - gives attachment to a
small part of the superior constrictor and to the
pterygomandibular raphe.
-Above the anterior part of this line - is a smooth
triangular area against which
the sublingual gland rests.
below the hinder part, an
oval fossa for the submaxillary
gland.
12
13
14
INFERIOR BORDER
rounded, longer than the superior, and thicker
15
RAMUS OF MANDIBLE
ramus mandibul; perpendicular portion
16
LATERAL SURFACE
- Lateral surface is flat and
marked by oblique ridges at its
lower part.
It gives attachment nearly
the whole of its extent to the
masseter.
17
MEDIAL SURFACE
MANDIBULAR FORAMEN
It provides entrance for the inferior
alveolar nerve and vessels.
18
19
MYLOHYOID GROOVE
From the lower and back part of the
lingulae mandibulae is a notch from which the
mylohyoid groove runs obliquely downward
and forward.
It lodges the mylohyoid vessels and nerve.
20
MANDIBULAR CANAL
The mandibular canal is a canal
within the mandible that contains the inferior
alveolar nerve ,inferior alveolar artery, and
inferior alveolar veins.
runs obliquely downward and forward in the
ramus
then horizontally forward in the body
communicates with alveoli
by small openings
21
LOWER BORDER
Is marked by oblique ridges on each
side, for the attachment of the Masseter
laterally, and the pterygoideus internus
medially; the sphenomandibular ligament is
attached to the angle between these muscles.
23
ANTERIOR BORDER
Is thin above, thicker below, and
continuous with the oblique line.
POSTERIOR BORDER
Is thick, smooth, rounded, and covered
by the parotid gland.
24
UPPER BORDER
Is thin, and is surmounted by
2 processes the coronoid in front
the condyloid behind,
separated by a deep concavity, the
mandibular notch.
25
CONDYLOID PROCESS
processus condyloideus
26
THE CONDYLE
27
THE NECK
The neck is flattened from backward, and
strengthened by ridges which descend from
the forepart and sides of the condyle.
Its posterior surface is convex
its anterior surface presents a depression for
the attachment of the Pterygoideus externus.
28
CORONOID PROCESS
processus coronoideus
29
BORDERS
anterior border - is convex and is continuous
below with the anterior border of the ramus.
posterior border- is concave and forms the
anterior
boundary of the mandibular notch.
30
SURFACES
Lateral Surface - affords insertion to the
Temporalis and Masseter.
Medial Surface -provides insertion to the
Temporalis and presents a ridge from apex till
last molar
Between This Ridge And The Anterior
Border - is a grooved triangular area, the
upper part of which gives attachment to the
Temporalis, the lower part to some fibers of
the buccinator.
31
SYMPHYSIS MENTI
It is the faint ridge on the median
line of the external surface of
the mandible.
This ridge divides below and
encloses a triangular
eminence, the mental
protuberance,
the base of which is depressed
in the center but raised on either
side to form the mental
tubercule.
It serves as the origin for the
Geniohyoid and the Genioglossus
32
ANGLE OF MANDIBLE
It is the junction of the lower border of the
LYMPHATICS
Sub-mandibular: run along the underside of

mainy by the 3rd division of trigeminal nerve ->
mandibular nerve
INFERIOR ALVEOLAR NERVE, branch of the
mandibular division -> enters mandibular foramen
and runs forward in the mandibular canal,
supplying sensation to the teeth->at mental
foramen the nerve divides into two terminal
branches: incisive and mental nerves-> The
incisive nerve runs forward in the mandible and
supplies the anterior teeth. The mental nerve
exits the mental foramen and supplies sensation
to the lower lip.

GROWTH AND
DEVELOPMENT
48
Prenatal
Week 6 - Intramembranous ossification center develops lateral to
Meckel's cartilage.
Week 7 - Coronoid process begins differentiating.
Week 8 - Coronoid process fuses with main mandibular mass.
Week 10 (approx) - Both condylar and coronoid processes are
recognizable and anterior portion of Meckel's cartilage begins to
ossify.
Weeks 12-14 - Secondary cartilages for the condyle, coronoid, and
symphysis appear.
Weeks 14-16 - Deciduous tooth germs start to form.
Birth
At birth mandible still has separate right and left halves.
Postnatal
Year 1 - Fusion of right and left halves of mandible at the symphysis.
Infancy and childhood - Increase in both size and shape of the
mandible; eruption and replacement of teeth.
Year 12-14 - All permanent teeth emerged except third molars.

COMPLETE DENTURES
65
ANATOMICAL LANDMARK
The available area of support from an edentulous mandible is
Supporting structures:
Buccal shelf area
Residual alveolar ridge
Relief areas:
Crest of the residual alveolar ridge
Mental foramen
Genial tubercles
Torus mandibularis.
67
LIMITING STRUCTURES
These are the sites that will guide us in having an optimum
extension of the denture so as to engage maximum surface
area without encroaching upon the muscle actions
Encroaching upon these structures will lead to dislodgement
of thedenture and/or soreness
of thearea while failure to
cover the areas upto the
limiting structurewill imply
decreased retention stability
and support.
68
69
RELIEF AREAS
These are the areas which either resorb under
constant load or have fragile structures within
or are covered by thin mucosa which can be
easily traumatized
& hence should be relieved.
72
LABIAL FRENUM
Fibrous band extending from
the labial aspect of the residual
alveolar ridge to the lip.
Give attachment to orbicularis oris and incisivus.
Active and sensitive frenum
The activity of this area tends to be vertical so
the labial notch on the denture should be narrow.
73
LABIAL VESTIBULE
Extends from the labial frenum to the buccal
74
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Extent of denture is limited because of
muscle inserted close to the ridge .
Muscles of lip actively pull across the
denture.(on opening mouth wide
orbicularis muscle is stretched->
narrowing the sulcus -> displacing
denture )
Impression are narrower in this region.
Tone of the skin of lip and orbicularis
depends on the thickness & position of
the flange.
HISTOLOGY
-Epithelium is thin and non-keratinized
- Submucosa formed by loosely
arranged connective tissue fibre mixed
with elastic and muscle fibre.
75
BUCCAL FRENUM
It overlies the depressor anguli oris muscle
Clinical significance
- Clearance must be achieved in the denture to
avoid dislodgement of the denture
76
LINGUAL FRENUM

77
BUCCAL VESTIBULE
It extends posteriorly form buccal frenum to the
retromolar pad .
Houses the buccal flange
Clinical significance
Impression is wide in this region
It is nearly 90 degree to the biting forces , providing
denture with greates surface for the resistance to the
vertical occlusal forces.
78
80
Masseter notch
It accomodates the masseter muscle in
the distobuccal area of the denture
Magnitude of its force is exerting the molar
region.
Clinical significance : Overextension soreness of the tissue &
dislodgement of the denture
81
82
Microscopically
Mucous membrane ->
keratinized layer
submucosa is attached to the
periosteum.
Covered by fibrous connective
tissue.
Bone -> cancellous and

covering.
Clinical significance :- Should be relieved during
impression making.

89
MENTAL FORAMEN
It is located on the lateral surface of the
mandible, between the 1st and 2nd bicuspid , halfway
between the lower border and the alveolar crest.
Clinical significance : Extensive loss of alveolar
ridge -> foramen occupies
more superior position.
Should be relieved over
the foramen
If not relieved -> can
occlude the mental nerve and
blood vessels -> causing numbness of the lip
