Resumen de Cronología y secuencia de la erupción de la dentición permanente en una muestra de Asturias

E. Plasencia, F. García, M. Puente

• A sample of 1616 individual, between 5 and 15 years of age, from the Área II of Asturias, has been employed in a cross-sectional study of dental emergence with two main objectives. The first one was to compute the age of attainment of emergence for each permanent tooth, excluding third molars. The second one was to fin out the frequency of sequences confronting every tooth with each one of the remaining teeth in order to detect polymorphic sequences. The main findings include that emergence occurs earlier in females and that the first teeth to erupt is I1i and the last M2s in both sexes. Three sequences showed a significant sexual dimorphism. I.e. P2sCi, CiP1i and CiP2i. Additionally we compare our results with those of FERNÁNDEZ RICO (1983) presented in the III meeting of SEAB.
