FUNCTIONAL MATRIX HYPOTHESIS
Introduction

Moss – said that head and neck consists of a number of
relatively independent and yet integrate functions – i.e.
o Digestion
o Respiration
o Speech
o Olfaction
o Balance
o Vision
o Neural integration

Skeletal unit – co mposed variably of bone, cartilage or
tendinous tissue.
- Macroskeletal un it
- Microskeletal unit
Microskeletal units:

Maxilla – Orbital
- Pneumatic
- Palatal
- Basal
Mandible
Coronoid – temporalis
FUNCTIONAL MATRICES
This not only includes “soft tissue” i.e. muscles, gland, nerves,
vesicle fat etc but teeth which are also considered as functional
matrix.

- Neurocranial
- Orofacial
- Otic
- Orbital

1) Volume o f the neural mars is import and it makes little
different whether or not this neural mars contains a normal
amount of brain tissue.

MANDIBULAR GROWTH
This is done by

First and last series of tracings are taken and superimposition are
done

Hence, cranial growth is combination of morphogenetically
primary activity of both types of matrix. Growth is accomplished
by both spatial translation and change inform.

MECHANOTRANSDUCTION
It is a general opinion that all vital cells are irritable, i.e. they
respond to alterations in their external environment.

Wh en a stimuli is applied it results in what is called
loading in the initial layer. Within each cell call the weighted
inputs – (stimuli) are summed and compared to against some
threshold value. If this value exceed, intracellular signal is
generated. This signal is then transmitted identically to all the
hidden layers to which the each initial layer to connected by gap
junction. Next, similar processes of weighted signal summation,
comparison and transmission occur in these intermediate layer unit
the final layer all are reached – this output finally determines rate,
direction, magnitude, duration of specific adaptation.
