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 was conducted on 84 panoramic radiographs and lateral cephalometrics related to 1015-year-old patients without systematic diseases affecting dental calcification and development. Patients skeletal age was determined by the stage of cervical vertebrae development and by using Lamparskis method. Dental age of samples was determined by Demirjians method. Findings were analyzed by SPSS 18 software using Spearmans correlation test to determine the correlation between the cervical vertebrae development and the dental development stages. P Results
Spearmans correlation test showed a significant direct correlation between dental age and skeletal age (r2 = 42.5%). The linear relationship between dental age and skeletal age was significant (p Conclusion
The findings of this study showed that, in Demirjians method, stage G of the mandibular second premolar teeth in girls and stage F of the mandibular second molar teeth in boys was most frequent between developmental stages. According to the relatively high correlation coefficient between the dental age and the skeletal age, using dental calcification stages by panoramic radiography may become a simple first-level diagnostic test to determine skeletal maturity, which requires more studies in different ethnicities and places all around the world.Keywords:
