Tooth eruption in children with growth deficit
Abstract:
The authors aim to study the relation existing between the chronology of tooth eruption and delayed growth, whether this is delayed growth with or without low genetic height or delayed growth caused by growth hormone deficit. The 50 children included in the sample were studied from the endocrine and dental points of view and it was found that children whose delayed growth is accompanied by a low genetic height or growth hormone deficit presented retardation in dentition and retardation in bone age. However, a retardation in bone age does not necessarily imply a retardation in dentition.
