RICARDO REYES, Manuela. Risks associated with loss of dental arch length in the early mixed teething. MEDISAN [online]. 2010, vol.14, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1029-3019.
A descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out in 155 children with loss of dental arch length in the early mixed teething, who attended the dental outpatient department in the health area of Genaro Méndez, state of Táchira, Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, from January to November, 2008, to determine the risks associated with this condition. In the series it was found that the dental decay (36,27 %) and early extractions (31,37 %) were the most prevalent risks in 8-9 year-old children. The most affected teeth group was the posterior one (55,48 %), and the tooth most commonly lost by early extractions was the second temporal molar (42,76 %).
