At what age do facial bones stop growing?!


Question: facial bones, such as jaw bone, nasal bone, cheekbones, brow bones...etc.


Answers: facial bones, such as jaw bone, nasal bone, cheekbones, brow bones...etc.

My oral-maxillo-facial surgeon told me the jaws proper stop growing at around age 20-21. I had to wait until then to have facial reconstructive surgery to correct deformities caused by a bone growth disorder. The sutures in the skull continue to close throughout life, which is one way that anthropologists can tell the ages of individuals who are known only from skeletal remains.

i think never.??

dont know 4 death but id say all life...........hope there is someone tht nows good luck tc
