“…Study conducted by Bugaighis I concluded that prevalence of bilateral Class I, Class II, and Class III canine relationship was 69.6%, 22.4%, and 4.4%, respectively [8]. These findings were similar to the previous studies conducted in different populations [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Canine and molar relationship together can be a diagnostic aid to predict changes in occlusal relationship.…”

Occlusal characteristics and spacing in primary teeth show different morphological features among different populations and races.Aim: To assess and compare the occlusal characteristics and spacing in primary dentition among3-6-year-old children of Shimla district of Himachal Pradesh. Materials and Methods:The study included 226 school going children. The primary molar relation, canine relation, overjet, and overbite were assessed using Foster and Hamilton criteria. Spacing conditions were registered according to Kisling and Krebs criteria. Results:The data was analysed, and Chi square test was used to compare the measured variables. There was statistically significant difference (P value≤0.05) in the molar relation among male and females. Other's characteristics were not found to be statistically significant. Conclusion:The study population has fewer deviations from normal occlusion which indicates decreased tendency for malocclusion in permanent dentition. However, further longitudinal studies are necessary.

“…Four important features usually described while considering a normal occlusion are spacing of incisors, deep incisor overbite and relationship of the distal surface of the upper and lower second primary molars and the primate spaces [6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Primate spaces are normally present from the time teeth erupt.…”

“…8 Similar finding was also noted in several studies. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Considering canine relation, class I canine relationship was present in (83.0% for left canines, and 84.0% for right canines), followed by class II (11.0% for left canines, and 9.0% for right canines) and class III (7.0% for left canines, and 6% for right canines). One of the study done in Wardha District of India, had also concluded that among the canine relation, Class I (47.2%) showed highest value followed by Class II (42.8%) and Class III (9.9%).…”

Occlusal Traits of Primary Dentition among Children Visiting a Dental Hospital in Kathmandu, Nepal

Occlusion in deciduous dentition varies among children of different populations and races. Paucity of information in Nepalese literature provided the motive for this study. The objective of this study was to examine the occlusal traits of Primary Dentition among children aged 2-6 year old. A cross-sectional study comprising total of 307 children all having deciduous teeth were included in the study. The dentition was examined using a mouth mirror and explorer under illuminated light in Department of Pedodontics and the data was recorded. All the children were screened for molar and canine relationship, overjet, overbite, spaced and non-spaced dentition. Out of the total, Mesial step terminal plane (62%-left; 58%-right), Flush terminal (33%-left; 36% -right) and Distal step (5%-left; 6%-right) were seen. Most of the children had class I canine relation (83%-left; 84%-right), ideal overjet (68.4%), overbite (63.1%) and spaced dentition. Statistical significant difference was found among the gender with respect to overjet. Presence of spacing was more in maxilla than in mandible which was statistically significant. These findings suggested desirable occlusal characteristics and spacing in primary dentition. However, future longitudinal studies are required to examine whether the transition of these occlusal characteristics will lead to favorable outcome in permanent dentition.

“…A four-year longitudinal study conducted in Japan suggested that primary anterior crossbite could be self-corrected due to the favorable growth of the maxilla in relation to the mandible [31]. Similarly, a study conducted in India reported a decreasing trend in class III canine relationship with increasing age among preschool children [32]. More evidence may be needed to confirm the necessity of interceptive treatment for primary anterior crossbite and class III canine relationship at an early age.…”

This survey examined the prevalence of malocclusion and its associated factors in 3- to 5-year-old children in Huizhou, China. Children were recruited from 21 kindergartens using a multistage sampling method. Two examiners performed oral examinations on the children, assessing occlusal traits, including primary molar and canine relationship, overjet, crossbite, overbite, anterior open bite, scissor bite, midline deviation, crowding, and spacing. Caries experience was recorded. Self-administered questionnaires were distributed to collect background information and oral health-related habits. Chi-square test, Mann–Whitney U test, and binary logistic regression were conducted. The study invited 1485 children and eventually recruited 1454 (52.9% boys; response rate: 97.9%). The prevalence of malocclusion was 68.3%, and deep overbite was found in 48.6% of the children. Children who had lip-biting habits had a higher prevalence of deep overbite than those who did not (OR = 2.36, p < 0.05). Children who had digit-sucking habits and dental caries in anterior maxillary teeth had a lower prevalence of deep overbite than those who did not (OR = 0.73 and 0.70, respectively, p < 0.05). In conclusion, over half of the children in Huizhou who participated in the study had malocclusion. Dental caries in anterior maxillary teeth, digit-sucking, and lip-biting were the associated factors of deep overbite.
