Development and evaluation of new clinical methods of age estimation in children based on the eruption status of primary teeth

Abstract

Such methods of age estimation will be of unparalleled importance in rural setups, which cannot afford the luxury of panoramic radiography.

Prediction of deciduous teeth eruption in Brazilian children: A cross-sectional study nested in a prospective birth cohort (BRISA)

“…This process is part of a set of children´s somatic growth phenomena influenced by age, so dental age refers to the morphological state of an individual’s actual age [ 5 ]. Counts of emerged teeth may be used to make age estimations in children, to estimate accurately the age of those subjects who lack valid identity documents, and to study biological correlations of human developmental aspects.…”

“…Counts of emerged teeth may be used to make age estimations in children, to estimate accurately the age of those subjects who lack valid identity documents, and to study biological correlations of human developmental aspects. Because of this, age-related reference ranges are useful for assessing the number of erupted teeth in children [ 5 , 6 ].…”

Maxillofacial Prosthesis and Dental Implantation for Cosmetics and Remodeling: A Systematic Mini Review on the Influence of Age on Dental and Facial Implants

“…Any of these factors could result in different levels of discomfort since the affected bone or tooth (as the case may be) is no longer capable of performing its function as required. The use of osseointegrated, dental, and maxillofacial implants helps reduce the adverse effects of damaged facial bones and teeth [3][4] . The main applications for osseointegrated implants are present in dentistry to offer a strong base for prosthetic devices and are also frequently used to replace lost teeth.…”

“…Hence, the selection of appropriate materials is very essential. Once the implant is surgically inserted into the gum, osseointegration takes place over time to forge a solid and long-lasting bond between the implant and the bone [3][4] . Biocompatible materials, such as titanium and titanium oxides are commonly used in osseointegrated implants to facilitate osseointegration and reduce the likelihood of rejection.…”

Low cost biodegradable areca husk fibre for the removal of direct dye from effluent

“…Among the fundamental characteristics to study it are the order and chronology of the outbreak of the primary dentition [4]. Tooth eruption is associated with the estimation of skeletal development and constitutes a physiological process that participates directly in the development of the stomatognathic apparatus, since it includes: the development of teeth in intrauterine life (it begins with the formation and calcification of the dental germ until the end of its physiological cycle), the displacement movements which are coordinated with the growth and development of the jaws; and finally possible alterations in the arches [4][5][6]. The state of the dental eruption should be considered as a parameter to consider in the comprehensive evaluation of growth and somatic development.…”
