The document summarizes the development and growth of the mandible. It describes how the mandible develops from Meckel's cartilage through intramembranous and endochondral ossification. The body develops from a single center that appears around the 6th week. The rami develop later through ossification that spreads from the body. Accessory centers give rise to structures like the condyle and coronoid process. The alveolar process develops along with tooth buds. Growth occurs through secondary cartilage at the condyle, deposition along the alveolar process, and subperiosteal bone modeling and remodeling. The shape of the mandible changes with age as the body and rami grow in size and the angle becomes
