Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the timing of sequence of tooth calcification in current Korean growing children. The Calcification stage of permanent teeth of Korean children was investigated by classifying them into 10 stages by the criteria of Nolla, using the panoramic radiographs of 258 healthy Korean children, 149 males and 109 females, between the ages of 4 years and 13 years, with normal growing tendency and no orthodontic treatment experience. The obtained results were as follows: 1. Timing of calcification of permanent teeth by Nolla stage was established with mean values. Among the mean value, results of Nolla stage 7 were as follows: Calcification timing of male in the maxilla was 6 year 9 month on central incisor, 7 year 4 month on lateral incisor,7 year 9 month on canine, 8 year 8 month on the first premolar, 9 year 4 month on the second premolar, 6 years 3 month on the first molar and 10 year 8 month on the second molar, calcification timing of male in the mandible was 5 year 11 month on central incisor, 6 year 4 month on lateral incisor, 7 year 5 month on canine, 8 year 1 month on the first premolar, 8 year 6 month on the second premolar 5 years 6 month on the first molar and 10 year 3 month on the second molar. Calcification timing of female in the maxilla was 6 year 2 month on central incisor, 6 year 7 month on lateral incisor, 6 year 11 month on canine, 8 year 1 month on the first premolar, 8 year 5 month on the second premolar, 5 years 10 month on the first molar and 9 year 10 month on the second molar, calcification timing of male in the mandible was 5 year 6 month on central incisor, 5 year 9 month on lateral incisor, 6 year 8 month on canine, 7 year 6 month on the first premolar, 8 year 4 month on the second premolar, 5 years 3 month on the first molar and 9 year 7 month on the second molar. 2. The sequence of calcification at Nolla stage 7 was in consequence to the first molar, central incisor, lateral incisor, canine, the first premolar, the second premolar and second molar. 3. While the sequence of root completion of maxilla was in consequence to the first molar, central incisor, lateral incisor, that of mandible was in order of central incisor, first molar and lateral incisor. 4 the calcification timing of permanent teeth was earlier in female than in male (p<0.05). According to above data, the result of this study is applicable for diagnosis and routine clinical practice for children.
