Abstract
While normative tables show mandibular teeth as erupting earlier than their maxillary opponents, individual analyses of mandibular versus maxillary eruption precedence among Quechua-speaking inhabitants of Central Ecuador, and Pima Indians, were in virtually complete agreement as to the tendency for the mandibular incisors'' precedence in 98 - 99 [degree]/o of cases, mandibular molar precedence in 70 - 75 [degree]/o of cases, but for maxillary premolar precedence in both populations.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
