Evaluating eruption of central incisors and first molars in relation to age and sex
Eruption is a developmental process in 3 phases of pre-eruptive, prefunctional and functional. Until now there has not been any research on the relationship between eruption and sex and age in Iran in order to compare with the available standards.

| Summary: | Eruption is a developmental process in 3 phases
of pre-eruptive, prefunctional and functional. Until now there has not been any
research on the relationship between eruption and sex and age in Iran in order
to compare with the available standards. In This study we recruited 3174
children of 5-8.28 years and eruption sequence in them was evaluated. The
results showed that eruption is slightly sooner in girls in comparison to boys
which is not statistically significant. The percentage of erupted teeth will
increase by increasing age but Maxillary central incisors in boys are the
exception. In addition, molars are erupted prior to mandibular centrals.
