THE PRIMARY DENTITION
 The initiation of primary
tooth buds occurs during the
first 6 weeks of intra-uterine
life.
primate space
 The primary teeth begin to
erupt at the age of about 6
months.
 The eruption of all primary teeth is completed by 2.5 - 3.5
years of age when the second deciduous molars come into
occlusion.
ERUPTION AGE & SEQUENCE OF DECIDUOUS
DENTITION
 The mandibular central
incisors are the first teeth to
erupt into the oral cavity.
 They erupt around 6-7
months of age.
THE SEQUENCE OF ERUPTION OF THE DECIDUOUS
DENTITION
 Central Incisors ( 6 - 8 Mo)
 Lateral Incisors ( 6 - 10 Mo)
 Canines ( 16 - 20 mo)
 First Molars ( 10 - 15 Mo)
 Second Molars (2.5- 3.5 yrs )
 The four front teeth-two
upper and two lower usually
erupt first, beginning as early
as six months after birth.
Usual Order of Appearance:
 Between 3 - 6 years of age, the dental arch is
relatively stable & very few changes occur.
SPACING IN DECIDUOUS DENTITION
 Spacing usually
exists between the
deciduous teeth.
 These spaces are called
Physiological spaces
or
Developmental spaces
Spacing in deciduous Dentition
 Localized spaces like
primate space are also
seen
 Generalized spacing
occurs in almost 2/3 of the
children, referred to as
physiological spaces or
developmental spaces
 In primary dentition stage,
a child may have generalized
spacing; no spacing; localized
spacing or crowded dentition.

i. Primate spaces - Exist between the upper lateral incisors and the
canines and lower canines and first deciduous molars.
ii. Physiologic spaces - Present in between the primary teeth
and play an important role in normal development of the
permanent dentition
Spaced dentition

Lack of space between primary teeth either due to
small jaw or larger teeth.

DEEP BITE
 A deep bite may occur in the
Initial Stages of development.
 The deep bite is accentuated
by the fact that the deciduous
incisors are more upright than
their successors.
 The lower incisal edges often
contact the cingula of the
maxillary incisors.
Deep bite
DEEP BITE
This deep
bite is later
Reduced
due to the
following
factors:
• Eruption of deciduous
molars.
• Attrition of incisors.
• Forward movement of
the mandible due to
growth.

DECIDUOUS DENTITION
SUMMARY
Spacing usually exists
between the deciduous
teeth.
A normal feature of
deciduous dentition is a
Flush Terminal Plane
A deep bite may occur
in the initial stages of
development.

THE MIXED DENTITION
 The mixed dentition period
begins at approximately 6 years of
age with the eruption of the first
permanent molars.
 During the mixed dentition
period, the primary along with
deciduous teeth are present
in the oral cavity.
CLINICAL FEATURES OF MIXED
DENTITION PERIOD
Normal development of occlusion part 1
THE MIXED DENTITION PERIOD
The mixed dentition period can be
classified into three phases
First transitional period
Inter-transitional period
Second transitional period
First transitional period
The first transitional period
is characterized by :
FIRST TRANSITIONAL PERIOD
1. The emergence of the first
permanent molars.
2 . The exchange of the deciduous
incisors with the permanent incisors
EMERGENCE OF THE FIRST PERMANENT MOLARS
 The mandibular first molar is the first permanent
tooth to erupt at around 6 years of age
The location & relationship of the first permanent molars
depend much upon the DISTAL SURFACE relationship
between the lower & upper second deciduous molars.
EMERGENCE OF THE FIRST PERMANENT MOLARS

MESIAL STEP
TYPE
DISTAL STEP
TYPE
TYPES OF TERMINAL PLANES
Mesial step terminal plane
(14%):
The distal surface of the
lower molar is more mesial
to that of the upper molar
 Invariably, this guides the
permanent molars into a
class I relationship.
The distal surfaces of
the upper and lower teeth
are in straight plane and
therefore situated on the
same vertical plane.
 It is usually the most
favorable relationship to
guide permanent
molars into class I
The distal surface
of the lower molar is
more distal to that of
the upper molar.
 This relationship is
unfavorable as it
guides permanent
molars into distal
occlusion
Flush Terminal Plane

Distal step terminal
plane (10%):
Mansoura University
FLUSH TERMINAL PLANE
FLUSH TERMINAL PLANE
When the distal surfaces of maxillary and mandibular
deciduous second molars are in the same vertical
plane, this is the normal molar relationship in the
primary dentition because the mesiodistal width of
mandibular molar is greater than maxillary molar.
The same vertical planeThe same vertical plane
FLUSH TERMINAL
PLANE
CLASS I MOLAR
For such transition:
The lower molar has to move forward by about 3 - 5 mm
relative to the upper molar.
FLUSH TERMINAL
PLANE
CLASS I MOLAR
This occurs by:
(1) Utilization of the physiological spaces & leeway
space in the lower arch.
(2) By differential forward growth of the mandible.

 The shift in lower molar can occur in two ways
They are designated as the
Early Shift Late Shift
Shift: Refers to mandibular permanent molar
moving mesially
 Since this occur early in the mixed dentition period it is called
early shift.
 The eruptive force of the first permanent molar is sufficient to
push the deciduous first & second molars forward in the arch to
close the primate spaces.
Early Mesial shift
o Many children lack the primate spaces & thus the erupting
permanent molars are unable to move forward to establish
Class I relationship.
o In these cases, when the deciduous second molars exfoliate, the
permanent first molars DRIFT MESIALLY utilizing The leeway space.
This occurs in the late mixed dentition period & is thus
called late shift.
Late Mesial
shift
Mansoura City
MESIAL STEP
MESIAL STEP
 In this type of relationship
the Distal Surface of the
lower second deciduous
molar is more Mesial than
that of the upper.
 Thus the permanent molars
erupt directly into Angle’s
Class I occlusion
MESIAL STEP
This type of mesial step terminal
plane most commonly occurs due
to:
EARLY FORWARD GROWTH
OF THE MANDIBLE
 If the differential growth of the
mandible in a forward direction
persists, it can lead to an
Angle’s Class III molar
relation.
 If the forward mandibular
growth is minimal, it can
establish a Class I molar
relationship.
MESIAL STEP
DISTAL STEP
This is characterized by the
Distal Surface of the lower
second deciduous molar being
more DISTAL to that of the
upper

The first transitional period is
characterized by :
First transitional period (Cont.)
1. The emergence of the first
permanent molars.
2. The exchange of the
deciduous incisors with the
permanent incisors
THE EXCHANGE OF THE DECIDUOUS
INCISORS WITH THE PERMANENT INCISORS
 During the first
transitional period: The
deciduous incisors are
replaced by the
permanent incisors
 The permanent incisors
are considerably larger
than the deciduous teeth
they replace.
The mandibular central incisors are
usually the first to erupt.
The crowns of the permanent incisors (red) lie lingual to the crowns of
the primary incisors (black), particularly in the case of the maxillary
laterals. Arrows point to the primate spaces
The crowns of the permanent incisors lie lingual
to the crowns of the primary incisors
THE EXCHANGE OF THE DECIDUOUS INCISORS
WITH THE PERMANENT INCISORS
This difference between the
amount of space needed for
the accommodation of the
incisors & amount of space
available for this is called
“INCISAL LIABILITY”
7 mm in upper arch
5 mm in lower arch
OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY
The incisal liability is
overcome by the following
factors:
A. Utilization of interdental spaces seen
in primary dentition.
B. Increase in the inter- canine width.
C. Change in incisor inclination
The permanent incisors are
much more easily accommodated
in
normal alignment in cases
exhibiting
Adequate Inter-dental Spaces
than in cases with
no spacing
OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY
• Mandibular
intercanine growth:
occurs mostly during
permanent incisor
eruption.
• Maxillary intercanine
growth: occurs during
incisor eruption, and
continues.

GROWTH
creates
more room
for the
permanent
incisors
OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY
B. INCREASE IN THE INTER - CANINE WIDTH
 One of the differences
between deciduous &
permanent incisors is their
inclination
 The primary incisors are
more upright than the
permanent incisors
OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY
C. CHANGE IN INCISOR INCLINATION
 Since the permanent
incisors erupt more labially
inclined they tend to
increase the Dental Arch
Perimeter
 This is another factor that
helps in accommodating the
larger permanent incisors
OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY
C. CHANGE IN INCISOR INCLINATION
THE MIXED DENTITION PERIOD
(CONT. )
The mixed dentition period can be
classified into three phases
First transitional period
Inter-transitional period
Second transitional period
Inter-transitional period
After the completion of eruption of 1st molars and incisors,
there is a silent period extend from 8.5 to 10 years of age,
during which there is no teeth eruption or exfoliation,
except a little changes in occlusion.
The teeth present are :

THE MIXED DENTITION PERIOD
(CONT. )
The mixed dentition period can be
classified into three phases
First transitional period
Inter-transitional period
Second transitional period
Second transitional period
THE SECOND TRANSITIONAL
PERIOD
 The second transitional period is characterized
by the replacement of the deciduous molars
& canines by the premolars & permanent
cuspids respectively.
 The combined mesio-distal width of the
permanent canines & premolars is usually less
than that of the deciduous canines & molars
 The surplus is called leeway space of Nance
THE LEEWAY SPACE
The amount of leeway
space is greater in the
mandibular arch than in the
maxillary arch.
 Maxillary arch
1.8mm (0.9 mm on each
side of the arch)
 Mandibular arch
3 .4mm (1.7 mm on each
side of the arch)
Maxillary
c-d-e minus 3-4-5
is 0.9 mm per side
Mandibular
c-d-e minus 3-4-5
is 1.7 mm per side
THE LEEWAY SPACE
THE LEEWAY SPACE
LEEWAY SPACE
The normal leeway according to Moyers is 2.6 mm in the
maxilla and 6.2 mm in the mandible. However, this varies
considerably and should be measured in each patient.
THE UGLY DUCKLING STAGE
 Sometimes a Transient or
Self Correcting
malocclusion is seen in
the MAXILLARY
INCISOR REGION
between 8 - 9 years of
age.
 This is a particular
situation seen during the
Eruption of the
permanent canines
 As the developing permanent canines erupt, they displace
the roots of the lateral incisors mesially.
 This result in transmitting the force on to the roots of the
central incisors which also get displaced mesially.
THE UGLY DUCKLING STAGE
 A resultant distal divergence of the crowns of the two central
incisors causes a midline spacing.
 This situation has been described by Broadbent as the ugly
duckling stage as children tend to look ugly during this phase
of development.
THE UGLY DUCKLING STAGE
 Parents are often apprehensive during this stage & consult
the dentist.
 This condition usually corrects by itself when the canines
erupt & the pressure is transferred from the roots to the
coronal area of the incisors.

THE PERMANENT DENTITION PERIOD
• The permanent dentition
forms within the jaws soon
after birth, except the cusps
of the first permanent
molars which form before
birth
• The permanent incisors
develop lingual or palatal
to the deciduous incisors &
move labially as they erupt
THE PERMANENT DENTITION PERIOD
• The premolars develop below the diverging roots of
the deciduous molars
• The eruption sequence of the permanent dentition may
exhibit variation
The frequently seen
sequence in the maxillary
arch is:
6 - 1 - 2 - 4 - 5 - 3 - 7
In case of the mandibular

MIXED DENTITION
Primary occlusion at 5 years
Note the generalized interdental spacing, primate spaces (distal to
lateral incisors in the maxilla and distal to cuspids in the mandible),
moderate overbite and overjet, and flush terminal plane.
Occlusion at 6 years
Note diminished overbite and overjet and beginning of a
mesial step at the distal surfaces of the primary molars.
Occlusion at 7 years
All first molars and central and lateral incisors have
erupted. A distinct mesial step has permitted Class I
interdigitation of the permanent molars, and the erupting
incisors have closed the primate spaces in both arches.
Occlusion at 8 years
Ordinarily, the mandibular lateral incisors erupt into the line of
arch, completing closure of the primate spaces. Note
interdental spacing in the maxillary incisor region. The
permanent molars have a firm Class I occlusion by this age if
a mesial step has been available at the time of their eruption.
Occlusion at 9 years
Mandibular permanent cuspids have erupted in this case.
Although this is desirable, often the mandibular cuspid and
first bicuspid arrive almost simultaneously.
Occlusion at 10 years
First bicuspids are erupted and maxillary permanent
cuspids are appearing. In most mouths, the maxillary
second bicuspids erupt before the cuspids.
Occlusion at 11 years
Interdental spacing in the maxillary incisor region has
been closed by eruption of the cuspids, and one second
bicuspid has appeared in each arch. Eruption of second
molars in the mandible at this time is not the most
favorable sequence; it is better if they are delayed until
all bicuspids have erupted.
Occlusion at 12 years
All permanent teeth except the third molars are in position.
Note absence of any interdental spacing and the slight
tendency to procumbency of the dentition. The procumbency
typical of the recently completed dentition seems to diminish
soon unless there is gross discrepancy between the size of
the teeth and the alveolar perimeter.

  • 28. THE MIXED DENTITION PERIOD The mixed dentition period can be classified into three phases First transitional period Inter-transitional period Second transitional period
  • 30. The first transitional period is characterized by : FIRST TRANSITIONAL PERIOD 1. The emergence of the first permanent molars. 2 . The exchange of the deciduous incisors with the permanent incisors
  • 31. EMERGENCE OF THE FIRST PERMANENT MOLARS  The mandibular first molar is the first permanent tooth to erupt at around 6 years of age
  • 32. The location & relationship of the first permanent molars depend much upon the DISTAL SURFACE relationship between the lower & upper second deciduous molars. EMERGENCE OF THE FIRST PERMANENT MOLARS
  • 33. FLUSH PLANE TYPE MESIAL STEP TYPE DISTAL STEP TYPE TYPES OF TERMINAL PLANES
  • 34. Mesial step terminal plane (14%): The distal surface of the lower molar is more mesial to that of the upper molar  Invariably, this guides the permanent molars into a class I relationship. The distal surfaces of the upper and lower teeth are in straight plane and therefore situated on the same vertical plane.  It is usually the most favorable relationship to guide permanent molars into class I The distal surface of the lower molar is more distal to that of the upper molar.  This relationship is unfavorable as it guides permanent molars into distal occlusion Flush Terminal Plane (74%): Distal step terminal plane (10%):
  • 37. FLUSH TERMINAL PLANE When the distal surfaces of maxillary and mandibular deciduous second molars are in the same vertical plane, this is the normal molar relationship in the primary dentition because the mesiodistal width of mandibular molar is greater than maxillary molar. The same vertical planeThe same vertical plane
  • 38. FLUSH TERMINAL PLANE CLASS I MOLAR For such transition: The lower molar has to move forward by about 3 - 5 mm relative to the upper molar.
  • 39. FLUSH TERMINAL PLANE CLASS I MOLAR This occurs by: (1) Utilization of the physiological spaces & leeway space in the lower arch. (2) By differential forward growth of the mandible. Primate Spaces
  • 40. FLUSH TERMINAL PLANE CLASS I MOLAR &  The shift in lower molar can occur in two ways They are designated as the Early Shift Late Shift Shift: Refers to mandibular permanent molar moving mesially
  • 41.  Since this occur early in the mixed dentition period it is called early shift.  The eruptive force of the first permanent molar is sufficient to push the deciduous first & second molars forward in the arch to close the primate spaces. Early Mesial shift
  • 42. o Many children lack the primate spaces & thus the erupting permanent molars are unable to move forward to establish Class I relationship. o In these cases, when the deciduous second molars exfoliate, the permanent first molars DRIFT MESIALLY utilizing The leeway space.
  • 43. This occurs in the late mixed dentition period & is thus called late shift. Late Mesial shift
  • 46. MESIAL STEP  In this type of relationship the Distal Surface of the lower second deciduous molar is more Mesial than that of the upper.  Thus the permanent molars erupt directly into Angle’s Class I occlusion
  • 47. MESIAL STEP This type of mesial step terminal plane most commonly occurs due to: EARLY FORWARD GROWTH OF THE MANDIBLE
  • 48.  If the differential growth of the mandible in a forward direction persists, it can lead to an Angle’s Class III molar relation.  If the forward mandibular growth is minimal, it can establish a Class I molar relationship. MESIAL STEP

  • 54. THE EXCHANGE OF THE DECIDUOUS INCISORS WITH THE PERMANENT INCISORS  During the first transitional period: The deciduous incisors are replaced by the permanent incisors  The permanent incisors are considerably larger than the deciduous teeth they replace.
  • 55. The mandibular central incisors are usually the first to erupt.
  • 56. The crowns of the permanent incisors (red) lie lingual to the crowns of the primary incisors (black), particularly in the case of the maxillary laterals. Arrows point to the primate spaces
  • 57. The crowns of the permanent incisors lie lingual to the crowns of the primary incisors
  • 58. THE EXCHANGE OF THE DECIDUOUS INCISORS WITH THE PERMANENT INCISORS This difference between the amount of space needed for the accommodation of the incisors & amount of space available for this is called “INCISAL LIABILITY” 7 mm in upper arch 5 mm in lower arch
  • 59. OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY The incisal liability is overcome by the following factors: A. Utilization of interdental spaces seen in primary dentition. B. Increase in the inter- canine width. C. Change in incisor inclination
  • 60. The permanent incisors are much more easily accommodated in normal alignment in cases exhibiting Adequate Inter-dental Spaces than in cases with no spacing OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY
  • 61. • Mandibular intercanine growth: occurs mostly during permanent incisor eruption. • Maxillary intercanine growth: occurs during incisor eruption, and continues. WIDTH GROWTH creates more room for the permanent incisors OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY B. INCREASE IN THE INTER - CANINE WIDTH
  • 62.  One of the differences between deciduous & permanent incisors is their inclination  The primary incisors are more upright than the permanent incisors OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY C. CHANGE IN INCISOR INCLINATION
  • 63.  Since the permanent incisors erupt more labially inclined they tend to increase the Dental Arch Perimeter  This is another factor that helps in accommodating the larger permanent incisors OVERCOMING INCISAL LIABILITY C. CHANGE IN INCISOR INCLINATION

  • 67. THE MIXED DENTITION PERIOD (CONT. ) The mixed dentition period can be classified into three phases First transitional period Inter-transitional period Second transitional period
  • 69. THE SECOND TRANSITIONAL PERIOD  The second transitional period is characterized by the replacement of the deciduous molars & canines by the premolars & permanent cuspids respectively.  The combined mesio-distal width of the permanent canines & premolars is usually less than that of the deciduous canines & molars  The surplus is called leeway space of Nance
  • 70. THE LEEWAY SPACE The amount of leeway space is greater in the mandibular arch than in the maxillary arch.  Maxillary arch 1.8mm (0.9 mm on each side of the arch)  Mandibular arch 3 .4mm (1.7 mm on each side of the arch)
  • 71. Maxillary c-d-e minus 3-4-5 is 0.9 mm per side Mandibular c-d-e minus 3-4-5 is 1.7 mm per side THE LEEWAY SPACE
  • 73. LEEWAY SPACE The normal leeway according to Moyers is 2.6 mm in the maxilla and 6.2 mm in the mandible. However, this varies considerably and should be measured in each patient.
  • 74. THE UGLY DUCKLING STAGE  Sometimes a Transient or Self Correcting malocclusion is seen in the MAXILLARY INCISOR REGION between 8 - 9 years of age.  This is a particular situation seen during the Eruption of the permanent canines
  • 75.  As the developing permanent canines erupt, they displace the roots of the lateral incisors mesially.  This result in transmitting the force on to the roots of the central incisors which also get displaced mesially. THE UGLY DUCKLING STAGE
  • 76.  A resultant distal divergence of the crowns of the two central incisors causes a midline spacing.  This situation has been described by Broadbent as the ugly duckling stage as children tend to look ugly during this phase of development. THE UGLY DUCKLING STAGE
  • 77.  Parents are often apprehensive during this stage & consult the dentist.  This condition usually corrects by itself when the canines erupt & the pressure is transferred from the roots to the coronal area of the incisors. THE UGLY DUCKLING STAGE

  • 97. Primary occlusion at 5 years Note the generalized interdental spacing, primate spaces (distal to lateral incisors in the maxilla and distal to cuspids in the mandible), moderate overbite and overjet, and flush terminal plane.
  • 98. Occlusion at 6 years Note diminished overbite and overjet and beginning of a mesial step at the distal surfaces of the primary molars.
  • 99. Occlusion at 7 years All first molars and central and lateral incisors have erupted. A distinct mesial step has permitted Class I interdigitation of the permanent molars, and the erupting incisors have closed the primate spaces in both arches.
  • 100. Occlusion at 8 years Ordinarily, the mandibular lateral incisors erupt into the line of arch, completing closure of the primate spaces. Note interdental spacing in the maxillary incisor region. The permanent molars have a firm Class I occlusion by this age if a mesial step has been available at the time of their eruption.
  • 101. Occlusion at 9 years Mandibular permanent cuspids have erupted in this case. Although this is desirable, often the mandibular cuspid and first bicuspid arrive almost simultaneously.
  • 102. Occlusion at 10 years First bicuspids are erupted and maxillary permanent cuspids are appearing. In most mouths, the maxillary second bicuspids erupt before the cuspids.
  • 103. Occlusion at 11 years Interdental spacing in the maxillary incisor region has been closed by eruption of the cuspids, and one second bicuspid has appeared in each arch. Eruption of second molars in the mandible at this time is not the most favorable sequence; it is better if they are delayed until all bicuspids have erupted.
  • 104. Occlusion at 12 years All permanent teeth except the third molars are in position. Note absence of any interdental spacing and the slight tendency to procumbency of the dentition. The procumbency typical of the recently completed dentition seems to diminish soon unless there is gross discrepancy between the size of the teeth and the alveolar perimeter.
