A deep area of the face, age and individual patterns in a structure of bone and muscle structures
Abstract
Morphometric study of deep areas of the face allow to identify bone structures, which are genetically and functionally related to both visceral and neural structures of the skull. In this work we studied the structure of bone structures that make up the deep areas of the face on specially chosen skulls of children and adults (154 skulls). The age differences in their sizes and proportions in some postnatal periods were set. Individual differences in the structure of bone and muscle structures of deep face area due to two extreme forms of the infratemporal fossa appear. Deep muscles of the face are characterized by differences in their parameters, angles and ways of divergence, relationships with other entities.
