The rhesus monkey probably has the same sequence of calcification of deciduous teeth as man: central incisor, first molar, lateral incisor, cuspid, and second molar. Initial calcification of the deciduous molar cusps is somewhat similar to that of man.
A three-year-old boy reported to the Dept. of Pedodontics with the complaint of swelling in the lower left side of the mouth. The radiographic and histologic study revealed the case to be a complex odontome which is rare in deciduous dentition.

The accuracy of information obtained from such a simple procedure as looking in the mouth as a measure of child development led to this review. The relationship between dental and physical development has been known for many years. Methods of assessing maturity by counting erupted teeth are described. Measurements taken on two boys illustrated this hypothesis, and from these the close correlation between height and weight, bone age and dental age is shown. It is suggested that physicians and dentists should record the number of erupted teeth on interval examinations, since the pattern of eruption and calcification of teeth may present the first indication of developmental retardation.

The quantity of various fluids ingested in winter by 160 six-year-old children living in a northern climate (54 degrees N.) was surveyed as part of a study to determine whether the amount of dental decay was related to the amount of fluoridated water ingested. Only milk, water and fruit juices were found to be important sources of dietary fluid. Total fluids ingested ranged from 11.7 to 91.0 oz. per day, whereas milk intake varied from 3.1 to 52.0 oz. and water intake from 0 to 29.0 oz. per day. Twenty-four children did not drink water as such. The results, when compared with previous reports, indicate that a greater quantitative and qualitative variation in ingested fluids may occur in cool climates, possibly owing to the absence of a constant fluid demand imposed by evaporation for body cooling. Further elucidation of these differences could influence the vehicle and dosage of nutritional supplements to dietary fluids.
