Resumen

VAILLARD JIMENEZ, Esther et al. Correlation of weight and height with dental eruption. Rev Cubana Estomatol [online]. 2008, vol.45, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-297X.

Objetive: To know the association among age, sex, height and weight with dental eruption as events of somatic growth. Material and Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted. A probabilistic, randomized sample stratified by sex and age, where n=3519 of the Mexican apparently healthy infantile population, of both sexes between 0 month and 14 years with 11 months old, settled down in Puebla's valley, was analyzed. Results: It was observed a positive correlation between weight and height in both sexes. In 46% of the female sample, it was found a correlation of weight with dentition and dental eruption; in 48 % of height with dentition and dental eruption; and with both in 36 %. In 64 % of the male population, it was found a correlation between dentition and weight; in 68 % between height and dentition, and in 60 % of dental eruption with height and weight. Dental eruption correlated in 56% with weight and in 56% with height in both sexes. Conclusion: There is a real positive correlation in fast growth stages in both sexes.

Palabras clave : Correlation; somatic growth; dental eruption.
