Abstract

A cross-sectional, descriptive and epidemiologic study was conducted of permanent
dentition of children from Santa Clara municipality between 2005 and 2009. To
determine the permanent dentition emergence chronology in children (boys and
girls) from the Santa Clara municipality and to establish the differences in relation
to values offered by other populations. The universe included 45 724 infants of both
sexes aged between 4 and 14 with a sample of 1 769 subjects. Mean values were
obtained establishing the chronology from the 50 percentile comparing the obtained
eruption averages with that offered by other authors. The age of permanent teeth
emergence was determined in study sample. There was a chronologic advance in:
incisors, upper canines, first lower molars and second lower bicuspids, and retard
for the second upper bicuspids and the canines in relation to authors selected for
comparison. The emergence chronology achieved differs from the values offered by
other populations. The great coincidence was in the case of Logan and Kronfeld
values. The above chronology differs between sexes.
