Mixed dentition Morphology characteristics: a correlation between 3 non-metric dental traits in temporal and permanent dentition in scholars from Cali - Colombia
Main Article Content
Summary: Objectives: Determine the correlation of the frequency and variability of three Non-metric
dental crown traits (Carabelli cusp, protostylid and molar pattern cusp) between deciduous (um2/lm2)
and permanent (UM1/LM1) teeth in mixed-dentition subjects. Materials and methods: A descriptive
study was conducted to determine the dental morphology in mixed dentition stage of young subjects.
The Arizona State University Dental Anthropology System ASUDAS and Grind and Sciulli Methods were
used as reference to compare frequency of dental traits in dental casts of 100 young individuals
racially mixed. Results: A high expression of furrows and pits of the Carabelli cusp, a high
frequency of protostylid in degree 1 (foramen secum) and a expression of molar pattern cusp,
revealed that the studied population received influences of the Mongoloid and Caucasoid dental
complexes. Correspondence on the traits expression among temporal and permanent dentition was also
confirmed. Bilateral symmetry and sexual dimorphism in the analyzed non-metric dental crown traits
were found. Key words: Dental anthropology. Dental morphology. Non-metric dental crown traits. Mixed
dentition.
