background and aim: methods of age estimation with the aid of radiography have higher accuracy compared with other methods. some investigations have been performed in this regard, but the correlation between dental development and body mass index (bmi) has been limitedly researched. in the present study, the correlation between dental development and bmi in the children referring to the dental ...

introduction: determining the skeletal age and remaining growth potential of patients are important factors in orthodontic treatment. evaluating cervical vertebrae development is a reliable method for determining skeletal age. this study aimed to evaluate the correlation between dental calcification and stages of skeletal maturation. materials and methods: this descriptive cross-sectional study...

The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and accelerated dental development. The dental developmental ages of 100 children aged between 8 and 12 years were determined using the Demirjian method and panoramic radiographs. BMI status was determined for each subject on the basis of the system developed by the International Obesity Task Force. There was a...

BACKGROUND Hypophosphatemic Rickets (HR) is a disease that affects mineralized structures including bone and dentine, studies on dental development in these patients are scarce with equivocal results. AIM To assess dental development of a group of children with (HR) and to compare that to healthy matched controls, and to assess relationship between delayed medical treatment and dental develop...

background: the aim of the present study was to estimate chronological age based on third molar development and to determine the association between dental age and third molar calcifi cation stages. materials and methods: in this cross-sectional study, 505 digital panoramic radiographs of 223 males (44.2%) and 282 females (55.8%) between the age of 6 and 17 were selected from patients who were ...

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the body mass index (BMI) and dental development. Methods: The dental ages of 196 children were calculated according to Demirjian’s method. The chronological age, weight, and height were recorded. Dental development was defined as dental age minus chronological age. Children were classified into three groups accord...

The aims of this study were to determine if dental colleges are clustered in selective states in India and if population to dental college admissions (seats) is correlated with regional health, economic, and human development in that country. There are 29 states and seven union territories in India, with 301 dental colleges. This study used publicly available data from the Dental Council of Ind...
