If there is bone covering the crowns, it can be readily predicted that eruption will not occur for many months; insertion of a space-maintaining appliance is indicated. A guideline for predicting ______ is that erupting premolars usually require 4 to 5 months to move through 1 mm of bone as measured on a bite-wing radiograph. Eruption Status of the Succedaneous Tooth is estimated by the amount of root completion (tooth erupts in oral cavity after 2/3rd root formation), regardless of the child’s chronologic age. However, the eruption timing of a permanent successor may be delayed or accelerated after premature loss of a primary tooth, depending on the developmental status, bone density of the area, and nature of the primary tooth loss. Very early loss before significant root formation of the permanent successor usually results in delayed eruption timing. Dental Age of Patient is the age calculated according to the last tooth erupted in oral cavity in normal eruption sequence. This involves recognizing the teeth clinically present in the oral cavity in comparison to dental eruption charts. The chronologic age of the patient is not as important as the developmental age. Delayed eruption timing may alter normal transitional adjustments in arch length, arch width, and arch circumference.
