The bones of the skull go through three stages of development.

The skeleton of a child, with adult skulls around it.

The first stage of skull development is membranous, then cartilaginous and bony.

During this period, primary ossification nuclei are formed in the cartilaginous skeleton of the skull.

After birth, secondary ossification points appear, from which the bones of the skull are finally formed by the age of 18-20.

The skull consists of two parts, the cerebral and the facial.

The bones of the cerebral part are frontal, two parietal, two temporal and occipital.

The bones are securely connected to each other, they create a strong protection of the brain.

In the front part of the skull, the largest bones are fixed maxillary and movable mandibular.

There are teeth on these bones.

Tells the specialist of the extremologist.

The shape and size of the skull depends on the set of fontanels and sutures of the newborn's skull.

There are seams between the scales of the skull bones, which are replaced by thin tissue at birth.

The bones of the skull are not fully undergoing the process of ossification, at the time of birth there are large spaces between them.

These are the remains of a webbed skull.

There are more than 10 of them on the skull of a newborn.

Premature overgrowth of it leads to the formation of a pointed navicular in front of the skull.

A sample of such a skull.

A coronal suture, the premature fusion of which can contribute to the formation of a high cylindrical or tower skull.

Its unilateral fusion leads to asymmetry of the head.

Lambdoid suture, premature closure of all three parts of which can lead to the formation of a conical shape of the skull.

A prematurely occurring process can cause microcephaly with all the ensuing consequences - underdevelopment of the brain.

Later closure of the fontanelles may be associated with rickets.

Rational nutrition is important in the growth and formation of the skull.

Experience with a ball made of elastic material.

The ball is round in shape, rolls well on a horizontal surface.

If such a ball is filled with a liquid, such as water, it will lose its round shape and will not be able to roll.

Deformity of the skull in children is caused by anatomical and physiological features of bone development.

Bones are in a transitional stage of development.

The brain grows rapidly and the bones are deformed under the weight of the brain and their own weight.

With flattening, deformation of the skull, sharp changes occur in the vascular channels, openings, auditory cavities, the violation of the functions of which leads to the inferiority of the child.

Photos of children.

The temporal bone is one of the most complex in its structure.

It is necessary to avoid that the child keeps his head turned to the side.

It is advisable not to turn on the music in the room where the child is, because the child reacts strongly to sound signals and turns his head.

A deformed skull, soft tissue atrophy of the right half of the face, asymmetry of the right eye slit of the orbit were revealed in a sick child, and all this was acquired.

Examination of the child by a pediatrician.

Many parents accept such a deformity of the skull as inevitable.

In fact, this deformity, from the point of view of pediatric orthopedics, has already been acquired.

A doctor near the skeletons of children of different ages warns that nothing goes unnoticed in pediatric orthopedics.

The doctor came to check on the child.

The doctor recommends changing the position of the baby in the crib after each feeding.

One of the important roles in the prevention of cranial deformity is played by the external occipital protuberance.

A fairly dense formation the size of a 3-5 kopeck coin.

Newborns and infants should be placed on this occipital protuberance, using a special device.

The main role in the education of posture is played by prevention and prevention of improper formation and growth of the skull.
