Correlation of dental age, skeletal age, and chronological age among children aged 9-14 years
A retrospective study
Keywords:
dental age, skeletal age, chronological age, childrenAbstract
Background: Understanding growth, which may be one of the most elusive variances, is critical for diagnosis and therapy planning. It has been common practice to use a child's skeletal age or dental age as a proxy for their actual age. Multiple studies have looked at how various populations' dental and skeletal maturity rates correlate with chronological age. The current research aimed to replace skeletal age estimate with dental age estimation in the community. Methods: “In all, 104 samples were collected, with girls and boys each accounting for nearly half. Demirjian's method was used to calculate the patient's chronological age based on their teeth, while hand-wrist x-rays and Fishman's skeletal maturation index were used to calculate the patient's chronological age based on their bones.” Results: We used Spearman's position request connection coefficients to examine the correlation between skeletal and dental maturation. Mean ages of men and women are not fixed at 11.89 1.867 and 12.21 1.473 years, respectively. “Researchers found a strong relationship between chronological age and measures of dental and skeletal maturity (P 0.01). The correlation between dental and skeletal ages was statistically significant (P 0.001), with a connection value of 0.683 for males and 0.704 for women.”
