Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To reveal malocclusion of primary dentition in the suburb of Chengdu. METHODS: Cross-section survey and malocclusion rate calculation were performed. RESULTS: There are 491 children with malocclusion from total 1 279 children; the rate of malocclusion is 38.38%. The most important malocclusion in primary dentition are over bite (III degrees), anterior cross bite, edge to edge bite, early loss of deciduous teeth, fused teeth. CONCLUSION: The rate of malocclusion of primary dentition in the suburb of Chengdu is a little bit light. Much work should be done to prevent or treat the malocclusion of primary dentition.
