STUDIES ON ERUPTIVE STAGES OF PRIMARY DENTITION IN KOREAN INFANTS

The author carried out to determine the normal range of eruptive time, average age and order of eruption of primary teeth in korean infants. The examimation was given to 1757 healty infants(Male 1032, female 725) from afterbirth 4 months to 32 months. The results was as fallows. 1. The eruption of primary teeth was 0.57 months earlier in male than in female. 2. The average month of eruption of primary teeth was as follows; Upper primary central is $9.66{\pm}0.19$ months Upper primary lateral is $11.58{\pm}0.18$ months. Upper primary canine is $18.06{\pm}0.32$ months. Upper first primary molar is $16.45{\pm}0.29$ months. Upper second primary molar is $24.28{\pm}0.51$ months. Lower primary central is $7.50{\pm}0.12$ months. Lower primary lateral is $12.87{\pm}0.16$ months. Lower primary camine is $18.82{\pm}0.34$ months. Lower first primary molar is $17.66{\pm}0.37$ months. Lower second primary molar is $23.89{\pm}0.51$ months. 3. The eruptive order of the korean is different from that of the American and same to that of Japanese. 4. There is no significant right and left arch. 5. Generally, the eruption of primary teeth on the upper is 1.08 months earlier than on the lower; but the upper central is 2.16 months later than the lower and the upper second primary is 0.39 months later than the lower.
