Abstract
Changes in shape of the mandibular dental arch were demonstrated in a developmentally representative sample of human embryos. Each reconstructed arch was described in terms of a conformance to a reference geometric curve; ie, catenary. Cross-sectional sample trends showed that the initial dental lamina is anteroposteriorly flattened during the sixth week and begins a progressive elongation and conformance to the catenary curve in 8½-week embryos.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
