Eleven years of experience have proved the value of the implant method in radiographic studies of facial growth in man. An instrument for inserting the pin in the jaw under local anesthesia was designed to give accurate guidance. Altogether, some 900 pins have been inserted in the jaws of 110 children. Tantalum pins have proved to be better tolerated by the tissues than those of chrome-cobalt alloy. The preliminary data relate to the growth of the mandible in a sample of 45 Danish boys. The anterior aspect of the chin underwent, for the most part, no visible remodeling. Beneath the chin there was, in many cases, some periosteal growth, accentuated during adolescence. The most pronounced remodeling occurred beneath the angulus region. Here resorption was usual, but periosteal apposition was also seen. The direction of growth at the condyles in the sagittal plane varied widely, with an average direction slightly forward in relation to the posterior tangent to the ramus.
