At 15 years of age, the third molar is forming and the roots of all permanent teeth should be completed.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>A child who has an early dental development could have a dental age of 12 for a chronological age of 10 and inversely for a child having a slower development, a dental age of 12 for a chronological age of 14.<\/p>\n<p>It is more important to recognize an anomaly in dental development than a delay or acceleration. For instance, an upper canine that has not erupted at 14 years of age can be considered normal if the second premolar has not yet erupted.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the second premolars have erupted at 12 years of age and the canines are not yet there, maybe there is something wrong.<\/p>\n<p>A few deviations from what is normal having a significant clinical importance should be known or recognized:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">1-The eruption of the lower second molar before the lower second premolar.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\">-decreases space for the second premolar.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">2-The eruption of the upper canine before the upper second premolar.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\">-the canine will erupt more labially, in ectopia.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">3-Asymmetry of eruption between the left and right sides.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you need to know at what age each tooth must come out, here is a guide on the evaluation of dental age starting at 6 years old.
