Late incisor crowding between 15 to 23years of age is:
  1. Late mandible calcification
  2. Delayed growth pattern
  3. Late mandibular growth theory
  4. Critical mandible growth theory
Explanation
Answer: C - Late incisor crowding between 15 to-23 years of age is late mandibular growth theory. In late mandible growth, the incisors move distally relative to the body of the mandible, which causes the crowding of molars. This condition is prominent in those who are congenitally missing third molars.
