Summary:Dental age estimation in a 4 year old Chinese girl Tooth* Stage n^ Mean age^a Mean age^b 21 D 142 3.80 3.80 22 D 139 4.43 4.43 23 F 123 9.13 – 24 B 50 3.81 3.81 25 A 14 4.33 4.33 26 E 61 5.17 5.17 27 B 51 4.98 4.98 31 E 99 4.68 4.68 32 E 93 5.60 5.60 33 F 100 8.97 – 34 C 66 4.51 4.51 35 B 62 4.67 4.67 36 E 73 5.09 5.09 37 B 52 4.87 4.87 5.29 4.66 * FDI Tooth numbering system ^ Scores obtained from the southern Chinese dental reference dataset a Including canines b Excluding canines The argument here is whether the canines in the panoramic radiograph are primary or permanent teeth. [...]assuming that the canines are primary canines showing delayed dental development, then the question arises of how much delay could be expected? [...]assuming that they are permanent canines, it is evident that the canines are way ahead of their normal development standards.
