The average yearly growth velocity (mm/yr) of frontal sinus was calculated seperatedly for each of prediction intervals T1 or T2. The average yearly body height increase in mm was calculated. The max body growth velocity at puberty was assigned a term body height peak or Bp.
Frontal sinus growth velocity is closely related to body height growth velocity during puberty. Frontal sinus growth shows a well defined pubertal peak (Sp). This occurs approx. 1.4 yrs after Bp or body height peak. www.indiandentalacademy.com
