To Study the eruption pattern of the mandibular second permanent molar, the author took 425 cases of Oblique Cephalogram from 6 to 13 years old children and observed the vertical and mesiodistal directional change and tooth axis change. The following results were obtained. : 1. The eruption pattern of the mandibular second permanent molar was changed at about 10.0~10.1 ages or calcification stage IX. 2. At the early stage, the path of eruption of the mandibular second parmanent molar directed upward and forward and after calcification stage IX it changed to the direction of upward. 3. At the early stage, the distance from the distal end of the mandibular first permanent molar to the anterior portion of the ascending ramus was 0.9~1.0 times larger than the mesio-distal diameter of the mandibular second molar, but at the later stage it was increased 1.4 times larger than the mesio-distal diameter of the mandibular second permanent molar.
