Aims and objectives The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate reference standard for eruption timing of primary teeth in infants and preschool children of Bhopal city and to determine the role of various factors affecting the eruption of primary dentition.Materials and methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among the infants and preschool children (4-36 months) attending the local government or private hospitals, and vaccination centers. Prior to the study, Institutional Ethical Committee clearance and informed written consent from the parents were obtained. The data were collected from full-term infants and preschool children of 4 to 36 months from Bhopal city. Oral examination was done under adequate natural light by a single examiner using mouth mirror and probe. Teeth present in the oral cavity were noted by using Federation Dentaire Internationale system of nomenclature in the preformed pro-forma. The teeth were considered as erupted, when any part of its crown had penetrated the gingiva and was visible in the oral cavity. Height, weight, birth weight, and other close-ended questions in questionnaire were asked from parents.Results and conclusion The data collected were statistically analyzed and it was observed that significant relation exists between tooth eruption and birth weight, feeding habits, socioeconomic status, and body mass index (BMI). Based on the findings, it may be concluded that Indian children experienced delayed eruption of primary teeth when compared with children of different countries and standard norms.How to cite this article Verma N, Bansal A, Tyagi P, Jain A, Tiwari U, Gupta R.

“…The presence of 16 or more primary teeth occurred when birth weight and weight at the 18-month-old health examination were greater, height at the 18-month-old health examination was higher, and fused teeth were fewer at the 18-month-old health examination. Soliman et al 5 reported positive correlations between anthropometric measurements (height and weight) and the number of emerged primary teeth in Egyptian infants whose ages ranged from 4 to 36 months. The positive correlation was observed in 18-month-old infants, as in the present study.…”

“…3 , 4 As for the 1990s and 2000s, several studies on primary tooth emergence timing were reported for several countries, including far-east Asian countries. 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 Woodroffe et al 12 observed that overall emergence patterns of primary anterior teeth were generally later than in the ones that had been previously reported for Australian children. However, there have been only a few similar reports on primary tooth emergence in Japanese children after the 1990s.…”

“…One of the possible factors associated with delayed emergence patterns of primary teeth is thought to be the secular changes in birth weight and in weight and height at 18 months of age. Soliman et al 5 observed a significant correlation between the number of emerged primary teeth and weight and height from 4 months to 36 months of age in Egyptian children. The number of emerged primary teeth tended to be lower when the infants’ weight and height were lower.…”

“…The number of emerged primary teeth tended to be lower when the infants’ weight and height were lower. 5 Delayed primary teeth emergence patterns might result from the weight and height of infants decreasing continuously over a long period.…”
