Evaluate and compare dental age with chronological age in hyperdivergent and hypodivergent growth pattern
Keywords:
Chronological age, Dental age, Hyperdivergent, HypodivergentAbstract
Aim: To evaluate and compare dental age with chronological age of different facial patterns in growing patients. Materials and method: This study comprises of lateral cephalogram and panoramic radiographs of 100 subjects. Subjects were classified into two groups of 50 each on the basis of angular and linear measurements Group I – Hypodivergent and Group II – Hyperdivergent growth patterns respectively. Comparison between intergroups and within intragroup is made by using t –test. Result: Statistically significant results were obtained while comparing dental age with chronological age in hyperdivergent and hypodivergent subjects indicating hyperdivergent group had more advance dental age than hypodivergent. Conclusion: Orthodontic therapy should be started earlier in patients with hyperdivergent growth pattern than those with hypodivergent growth pattern.
