- Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the applicability of Tanaka and Johnston method in predicting the size of unerupted permanent canines and premolars in a section of Peshawar Population. Convenience sampling technique was utilized for collection of data from 100 patient's casts on printed proforma. The teeth were measured using an electronic digital caliper with an accuracy of ± 0.01 mm. The predictions of the width of the canines and the first and second premolars in both arches were made with the Tanaka-Johnston analysis. For the maxillary arch, 11 mm was added to half of the total value of the mesiodistal widths of the four mandibular incisors, whereas 10.5 mm was added to half of the total value of the four mandibular incisors regarding to the mandibular arch. Both genders in both occlusal arches showed high level of applicability of Tanak and Jhonston mixed dentition analysis with p<0.05.
