Etiopathogenesis: The study of the mechanisms causing diseases, including their origins or causes.
Genetic Theory (Weinmann and Sicher, Scott): The concept that form determines function; anatomical deformities cause dysfunctions that worsen the initial anomaly.
Functional Theory (Moss, Enlow): The idea that function creates form; functional or parafunctional disorders lead to morphological anomalies.
Synthetic Theory (Van Limborgh): A consensus theory recognizing genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors collectively control craniofacial growth.
