Abstract

Background/purpose

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of age and sex on the difference between chronological age (CA) and dental age (DA) predicted using the Demirjian and Willems methods in Taiwanese children.

Materials and methods

A total of 232 periapical X-ray images were obtained from children aged 5–12 years in Taiwan. Among them, 119 were boys, and 113 were girls. DA was calculated on the basis of the X-ray images of permanent teeth by using the aforementioned methods. The children were stratified by age (5–9 years [early mixed dentition period] vs. 10–12 years [late mixed dentition period]) and sex (boys vs. girls). Statistical analyses were performed to investigate potential age- and sex-based differences in the correlation between CA and DA.

Results

No significant difference was observed between the mean CA and DA predicted using the Willems method in children with late mixed dentition and in girls. However, the correlation between CA and DA was stronger in children with early mixed dentition than in those with late mixed dentition and also stronger in boys than in girls.

Conclusion

For children in mid-Taiwan, age and sex influence the development of permanent teeth. In addition, the correlation between DA and CA is relatively strong for boys in the early mixed dentition period.

台湾儿童的性别和混合齿合时间对年代年龄和牙龄差异的影响
背景/目的本研究的目的是确定年龄和性别对台湾儿童的计时年龄(CA)和用Demirjian和Willems方法预测的牙龄(DA)之间差异的影响。其中,119 名男孩,113 名女孩。根据恒牙的 X 光图像,采用上述方法计算 DA。按照年龄(5-9 岁[混合牙列早期] 与 10-12 岁[混合牙列晚期])和性别(男孩与女孩)对儿童进行了分层。结果用 Willems 方法预测的混合牙列晚期儿童和女孩的平均 CA 值和 DA 值之间没有发现明显差异。结论对于台湾中部的儿童来说,年龄和性别会影响恒牙的发育。此外,在混合牙列早期,DA 与 CA 之间的相关性在男孩中相对较强。

期刊介绍: he Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS), published quarterly, is the official and open access publication of the Association for Dental Sciences of the Republic of China (ADS-ROC). The precedent journal of the JDS is the Chinese Dental Journal (CDJ) which had already been covered by MEDLINE in 1988. As the CDJ continued to prove its importance in the region, the ADS-ROC decided to move to the international community by publishing an English journal. Hence, the birth of the JDS in 2006. The JDS is indexed in the SCI Expanded since 2008. It is also indexed in Scopus, and EMCare, ScienceDirect, SIIC Data Bases. The topics covered by the JDS include all fields of basic and clinical dentistry. Some manuscripts focusing on the study of certain endemic diseases such as dental caries and periodontal diseases in particular regions of any country as well as oral pre-cancers, oral cancers, and oral submucous fibrosis related to betel nut chewing habit are also considered for publication. Besides, the JDS also publishes articles about the efficacy of a new treatment modality on oral verrucous hyperplasia or early oral squamous cell carcinoma.
