Abstract:
The epidemiological characterization of the occlusion was made on basis of the classical Angle Classification through a statistical selection from a total of 4363 females and males children; which ages ranged between 7 to 14 years old. These were students registered in public federal schools located in the south of the metropolitan area. The results of the study were determined as follows: Class I, 84.7%; Class II, 10.9%, Class III 4.3%.
